App being reviewed falsely as "Spam"

Hi everyone! recently my app got rejected due to "spam", there isn't much in the app currently so I could see how it's not fit for release on the app store, but that wasn't what I was trying to do. Instead I was submitting a build for testflight external testing.

I've sent an appeal but after around 5 days I've heard absolutely nothing, so I was wondering if anyone else has had experience with issues like this and could help guide me to getting my build accepted.

For context, the only possible thing that I've been able to think of to be causing this "spam" rejection Is that around 20% of the assets for the game (including some promotional arts) are taken from an external website, these assets are allowed for commercial use, but aren't only able to be used by one person, so possibly some sort of bot automatically flagged my build as spam because it found another app using similar assets?
