Both options are correct with very subtle differences in meaning:
The bus leaves in five minutes. - this implies a more fixed schedule. We use the present simple for repeated actions. So you might use this if referring to a bus which leaves at the same time habitually.
The bus is leaving in five minutes. - this refers more to a specific situation. We use the present continuous for plans or arrangements.
