Valak is the overarching antagonist. Annabelle would most likely be th Big Bad, as she is one of the most recurring antagonists, but Valak is the Bigger Bad because it is responsible for Annabelle's creation, the possession of Frenchie, the Amitiville killings, and more mostly behind the scenes unti  it decides to take care of things itself in The Conjuring 2 and The Nun.
