Leia's "memories" of Padmé could be glimpses of her mother's emotions and presence at the moment of her birth, echoing through the Force. Dreams and Visions: Leia might have experienced dreams or visions throughout her life that provided her with glimpses of her mother.
Given that she's the child of Anakin Skywalker, who's prophesied to be the Chosen One, the Skywalker bloodline holds a tremendous amount of power. With Leia's strong connection to the Force, it seems like the most likely solution to this inconsistency is that she's caught glimpses of her mother through Force visions.
While both Leia and Luke knew they were not being raised by their biological parents, the franchise has never explicitly made clear how much the two characters knew about their mother, Padmé Amidala, or their father, Anakin Skywalker.
Leia's Force abilities and her lack of awareness of her true identity also contributed to Vader's inability to sense their familial connection. Vader's denial of Anakin Skywalker's legacy and his fear of getting hurt again prevented him from realizing the truth about his children until later in the original trilogy.
Did Leia ever find out Darth Vader was her father?
Alderaan's princess knew she had been adopted by Bail and Breha Organa after the Clone Wars, but she had no idea who her parents were. That was until Luke Skywalker told her the truth - that he was the son of Darth Vader, and that she was his sister.

How did Vader know Luke was his son but not Leia?
In canon, Vader found out because Luke told Boba Fett that he was “Luke Skywalker.” This was explained in the canon comic Star Wars (2015) 5. Vader only sensed Leia was Luke's sister because Luke was thinking about her on the Death Star II. When Vader tortu…
Anakin Skywalker's birth mystery is solved - his mother, Shmi Skywalker, reveals that there was no father and she can't explain what happened. Qui-Gon Jinn believed that the Force itself created Anakin in Shmi's womb, making him the Chosen One who would bring balance to the Force.
Luke and Leia never sensed that they were twins until Return of the Jedi despite both being sensitive to the Force. Anakin Skywalker's twin children are the original Star Wars trilogy's driving force, having been separated after Padme's death.
In order to keep the children safe from Vader, who was unaware of their births, it was decided that Luke would be taken to live with his uncle and aunt, Owen and Beru Lars, on Tatooine; meanwhile Leia was taken to Alderaan as the adopted child of Amidala's friend and colleague, Senator Bail Organa, and his wife, Queen ...
She was not genetic Organa but still, she is rightful Organa. So yes, Palpatine knew that Leia is daughter of Anakin as well as the fact that Ben is the son of Leia and Han.
While in the Ewok village, Luke revealed his true lineage to Leia. She was shocked to discover they were brother and sister, though deep down, she always knew this to be true.
Leia kept Han's medal as a treasured memento of her dead husband. She held it before reaching out to her son, perhaps somehow connecting to Ben and Han's presence in the not-so-living Force.
Yes, in both. In Disney canon she knows about Padmé (and thinks quite a bit about her) in the book Bloodline by Claudia Gray. She learns of her sometime between the battle of Endor and Bloodline (which takes place several years before TFA). In the EU/Legends, she also learns of Padmé's identity.
In Part III, Leia revealed her knowledge about the adoption, only that she didn't know about her birth, which explained her unsurprised response when Luke told her that they were brother and sister in Return of the Jedi. Obi-Wan Kenobi also provided an explanation about how Leia gradually "lost" her Skywalker heritage.
Following Palpatine's final defeat and her own resurrection, Rey adopts the name Rey Skywalker to honor her mentors and their family legacy and renounce her lineage. As the last remaining Jedi, she makes it her mission to rebuild the Jedi Order.
Rumor had it that his mother was Palpatine's Umbaran aide Sly Moore, who had impregnated herself using DNA from an undisclosed source. Regardless of the veracity of that report, Triclops was regarded as the true son of Palpatine, both by himself and the few high-ranking officials who were aware of his existence.
Han Solo marries Princess Leia and they have three children: twins named Jacen and Jaina, and a younger son named Anakin. Luke reestablishes the Jedi Order, marries a non-movie (but fan favorite) redheaded Force-wielder named Mara Jade, and they have a son, Ben Skywalker (named in honor of Obi-Wan “Ben” Kenobi).
Luke and Leia weren't Clones either, which is the other means of reproducing in SW. They were non-identical twins, they weren't grown in a vat like the Clone Troopers but born as a result of a normal pregnancy. So yeah, Anakin and Padme obviously had sex at least once, but since SW is for kids we don't need to see it.
Anakin's Force Choke begins the series of injuries that ultimately leads to Padme's death, and convinces Obi-Wan to fight him. Despite this, when Anakin learns of Padme's death, his immediate reaction of grief and regret shatters everything in the lab with a powerful force shockwave.
But it's possible that Luke came to realize who Rey was as he began teaching her, as his connection to Rey grew during his lessons. The main reason that scenario is possible is that Luke was closed off from the Force when he initially met Rey, meaning he couldn't have sensed who she was until came back to him.
Anakin Skywalker never knew Padmé was pregnant with twins, and he believed his child had died with his wife. He had no idea Padmé had given birth before she died, still less that the Jedi had spirited the children away and hidden them.
Darth Vader acts like he doesn't even know C-3PO or R2D2. They were with him since he was a child. He did everything he could to forget his past. Also, his plating had been replaced many times, and protocol droids all look very similar.
Yoda. Yoda's knowledge of Luke Skywalker's true parentage was also confirmed in Return of the Jedi. As with Obi-Wan, Yoda believed that Anakin's fall to the dark side made him unsalvageable, with the Darth Vader persona being his only identity following his ascension to Sith Lordship.
