I've set up TouchOSC to send touch messages but releasing volume fader in touch automation mode will not stop writing automation immediately. It takes around 3 seconds to stop writting it.

Yes and no.
Yes, sure REAPER can respond to /z OSC messages, wherever they come from, as long as you configure REAPER to listen to such messages. But, no, REAPER does not know out-of-the-box that it should listen to such messages or how to respond to them. That requires a proper configuration, matching the message patterns from sender (TouchOSC) to the receiver (REAPER). Simply sending the messages from TouchOSC is meaningless, unless you configure the desired response on REAPER's end as well.
Although REAPER does not support dedicated OSC messages to signal where touches begin / end touch for arbitrary individual parameters, for this specific case you seem to be in a bit of luck, since there are two notable exceptions for track volume and pan automation, where you can use TRACK_VOLUME_TOUCH and TRACK_PAN_TOUCH to configure touch-sensitive automation recording. So you should be able to get this working for your current purpose. However, it doesn't work (yet) for anything beyond those two specific parameters.
Fwiw, imho the scheme currently used for track volume and pan should best be seen as somewhat of a test case. This topic has been discussed before (as referred to above by mim as well), see e.g.
