@ VictorBarreau-3130 Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Forum, Thank you for posting your query here!
Data must remain in the archive tier for at least 180 days or be subject to an early deletion charge. Data in the archive tier can take several hours to retrieve depending on the specified rehydration priority. For small objects, a high priority rehydrate may retrieve the object from archive in under an hour.
See Rehydrate blob data from the archive tier to learn more.

For blobs in Archive, the only valid operations are GetBlobProperties, GetBlobMetadata, ListBlobs, SetBlobTier, SetBlobTags, GetBlobTags, FindBlobsByTags, and DeleteBlob. Setting the tier from Archive to Hot or Cool typically takes up to 15 hours to complete.
• Is there any limit on the size of the object for standard priority where we mention it can take up to 15 hours?
Limits are only what our Blob limits (Rehydrates is bound by how fast you can call SetBlobTier) For large objects, can hit account limits. For small objects, depending on the tool
Additional information: Once a rehydration request is initiated, it cannot be canceled. During the rehydration process, the x-ms-access-tier blob property will continue to show as archive until rehydration is completed to an online tier.
