According to the third law of motion the action and reaction forces act on two different object and that is why the object moves. Cheers!

when force acting on a body has an equal and opposite reaction then the body moves because the force is not applied on the same object . let's take an example =>
u are standing on ground
u are in rest because u apply ur force i.e. weight in earth and earth applies a similar but opposite force i.e. reaction force on u , so u do not come in motion while standing on earth
now let's take another example ,
u start walking , u apply a force greater than friction force on the ground and push the ground backwards and the ground applies an equal and opposite reaction on u , pushing u in forward direction , so here u come in motion because the force and reaction force are not applied on the same body . u apply force on ground and ground applies force on you
but , in the first example u did not because force and reaction force were being applied on the same body ( in that example specifically "you" )
hope this helps
