Perhaps appreciate that the Apple Support Community is a user-to-user technical forum. Other than the site Moderators, Apple neither monitor nor participate within this community. Contributors here are all end-users, just like you.
If you are having difficulty disabling Assistive Touch, perform a forced restart of your iPad - as this will often clear an isolated software issue.
Force restart iPad (models with Face ID or with Touch ID in the top button)
If your iPad doesn’t have the Home button, do the following:
Force restart iPad (models with the Home button)
Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
After the restart, you can try to disable Assistive Touch.
