Cancel "Domain validation" for Front Door domain

I was playing with Front Door and did set up a custom domain.
This domain is a Subdomain-delegations to my Azure subscription. Meaning for the domain myCompany.com I do not have access to the DNS settings, but the admin of myCompany set a delegation of sub.myCompany.com to a DNS zone in my Azure subscription. So I have a zone sub.myCompany.com in my account. Meaning I can only create A/Alias for sub.myCompany.com which I set to be an alias of my front-door.
This did work fine and I added the subdomain to my front-door and everything worked fine including using a SSL certificate from my KeyVault.
During playing around I tried using managed certificates and enabled that on the subdomain. And now the domain is stuck at "Domain validation" since a few days:
Stuck state

And I can't change this back because this results in the following error:

Failed to update the custom https configuration
Failed to update the custom https configuration for the frontend host '...'. Error: The requested operation cannot be executed on the entity in the current state.

How can I cancel that state to set it back to my KeyVault certificate?

I guess as this is not a CNAME-mapping it did fall back to e-mail verification and as the TLD is not under my control the mail got lost at the company managing the TLD. I do not have a direct contact with that company as I'm a subcontractor to the TLD's company and that company is also not managing the main domain on their own so it is not that easy to get ahold of whomever could have received that mail. And as the KeyVault certificate was working fine I just want to switch back to that...

I also had the problem that the domain validation was still not completed after many days.

I then opened a ticket in Azure and then the process was terminated in the backend. After that I was able to start the domain validation again and then it worked within 1 hour with the certificate
