The transaction message does not give you the account contents, only the account pubkeys and instruction data involved. The metadata information is stored in one of those accounts, and you'll have to fetch it separately.

In your case, if you want to get the metadata for a token account, you'll need to find the metadata account, by looking through the instructions, pulling out the index, getting the pubkey from accountKeys, calling connection.getAccountInfo on the correct pubkey, and finally deserializing that account.
