There is no email support, use this contact page for your options:

Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support


Account Recovery takes several days to recover the password and is the last resort since there are other options to reset the password immediately if you have the required information.

Apple does not do support by email unless they initiate it.

- "Account recovery is a process designed to get you back into your Apple ID account when you don’t have enough information to reset your password." "If you use two-factor authentication and can’t sign in or reset your password, you can regain access after an account recovery waiting period." I believe they really mean it when they said a waiting period. There is nothing you can do to speed it up.
