Part of the rabbit's design is geared towards detecting and escaping predators. Even your domestic bunny will still act like a prey animal.
Even when rabbits are sleeping they must constantly be monitoring their environment for danger, hence the constant nose movement. As they wiggle their nose and pull in air they also part the split in the upper lip to moisturize the air and improve the ability to pick up scents.
When a bunny is very scared, excited or interested in something its nose will often wiggle faster. (to take in more scents) When a bunny is completely relaxed, it will sometimes stop moving its nose completely.
