Have you tried reporting this to Meta’s security team and copying your state’s attorney general? Sounds like the CFAA would apply. You may not win, but making noise may help, and if it’s an insider they might be fired if Meta knows the legal apparatus is notified.

I haven't yet... so far I have always been able to get it back via a friend at FB.

Get on record with law enforcement and state legal reps. Unauthorized authorization is a federal crime, and a paper trail is crucial for seeking recourse.

I'd report it to the FBI, as well.
