Facebook has almost no actual support that you can get in touch with. My..
wife just had a photo that was removed due to community violations. It was a picture of a train that we took while on a family hike. The video of the same train is still up and apparently is fine. She filed to appeal as well, but from my experience when I've appealed in the past, you will get no response. A lot of Facebook monitoring is all automation done by AI and other automated processes with no human intervention.
My mom had her Facebook account stolen about a year ago (she fell victim to a very common Facebook hack) and when I tried to report that her account had been taken over, Facebook reviewed and sent a canned response that the account was fine and blocked me from accessing her stolen account any more (so she lost a bunch of family photos) and the hacker had already started asking for money in my mom's name to her friends and Facebook still thought it was fine. It's unreal.
I looked into it some more and found thousands of people including rather large small businesses have had their Facebook accounts and pages taken over and no one could get Facebook to lift a finger.
There have been a few success stories that I found who contacted the California Attorney General since Facebook is headquartered there or there own state attorney general, but not everyone has had the same luck.
If you search reddit for Facebook hack or account suspension you can find hundreds if not thousands of people reporting issues. I linked a post below about someone getting their suspension lifted and the steps they used to do it. Don't think it's an exact replica of your issue, but may help.
Good luck and hope you can get it figured out!
