If the thief turned off Find My, there is no way to track it. See the information in If Find My iPhone or Find My iPad isn't enabled on your missing device - Apple Support including the following:

If your missing device doesn't appear in the Find My app or at iCloud.com/find, you didn't turn on Find My. There's no other Apple service that can find, track, or flag your device for you. But there are steps that you can take to help protect your data.


Be sure to change your Apple ID password as they would not have been able to turn off Find My without knowing it.
