Well Chara, this sounds like an irritating and difficult to manage situation. Obviously you have all the rights to be furious, but please try to focus your attention on other things. I'm not saying to pretend you have no problems, just try to ignore your cousins at least in some occasions. If they call you loser or other names, just try to reply showing you don't care. Or don't reply at all. In these cases the fact you get angry just make them feel important and willing to keep on bothering other people. For them it's probably a form of cheap entertainment. If I didn't get it wrong, they're both younger than you, and they're both very selfish and not very respectful. Well, this is enough to not take them into any consideration, unless they actually do anything really serious (like stealing money and such things you mentioned). Silly kids always like to call other people names, and punching one of the in them face won't give you satisfaction, nor this will stop their way of acting, probably. Just try to stay calm. As Vicious said, your mom should ask them, or their father, to pay for food and other expenses. The fact they're your cousins is not enough to justify your kind hospitality, especially considering their rude and careless behaviour. They probably need to understand they cannot rule a family which isn't even their own. Also, your mother probably should tell in clearer terms to their father you're not willing to have your family ruined because of them. If he cannot take care of his duties, then he surely cannot pretend you can replace him.
Just hope you can get rid of these problems very soon!
Cheer up! May the Force be with you!
