Find My iPhone cannot be turned off if the Stolen Device Protection is enabled.


See the pic below which is self-explanatory to turn Stolen Device Protection Off.



Probably you have "Always" Ticked in place of "Away from Familiar Location"


For enhanced security, there's a one-hour delay when changing your location settings from "Always" to "Away from Familiar Location." This applies even if you use Face ID for authentication.



A delay will be required when you are not at a familiar location, such as your home or work, to change security settings.
