The FLEX player can play offense for the DP any number of times, as long as the FLEX player does not leave the game in the meantime.
In the example, the DP has left the game twice and the original DP player cannot re-enter after the second time the DP is replaced by the FLEX or anyone else.

If "3rd inning flex wants to bat" and has not been removed since the second time the FLEX replaced the DP, that is legal and in fact, the FLEX player has taken over that spot in the BO.
