The sensor must be powered from E+, E- of the HX711.
Then there is no problem with common mode range.

Not according to the sensor datasheet
I always understood that these sensors have a differential output with a common mode voltage of VCC/2. But I can't find any mention of common voltage of the differential output pair in the datasheet.
OP should connect sensor VCC and GND to a 5volt source and measure the two outputs.
They should be about 2.5volt.
