Here is my sample input HTML Codes:
<html>
<head>
<object></object>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Below is the output when parsed using Jsoup:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<object></object>
</body>
</html>
Question: Why did Jsoup move the <object> tag from the <head> to the <body>?

This is correct behaviour since <object> must appear inside the body.
HTML Tag

Tips and Notes
Note: An element must appear inside the element. The text between the and is an alternate text, for browsers that do not support this tag.

If you want the object within the head, you can use the XmlParser instead:
final String html = "<html>\n"
+ "<head>\n"
+ "<object></object>\n"
+ "</head>\n"
+ "<body>\n"
+ "</body>\n"
+ "</html>";
Document doc = Jsoup.parse(html, "", Parser.xmlParser());
