Using my alt acc for this, but can you get banned for saying kys. I just told this guy who purposely ran it down that and he said he would report me. I already got a chat restriction, will I get a 14-day ban or a permanent one?

I'm not even sorry, he deserved it. Like he was not okay in the head.

Yes. Your first offense will always be an immediate 14-day suspension, regardless of account status.

If you already had a 14-day suspension, it will be escalated to a permanent suspension.

If you said it only once then you're fine

100% factually incorrect. Do not listen to this person.

Yes.

Someone deserved to be told to kill themselves? I guess being slightly inconvenienced in how you access a video game is way too harsh of a punishment for that.

Yup

Generally, yes. Things like suicide encouragement fall under "zero tolerance" language, and subsequently result in escalations past the standard progression in the vast majority of cases, if not every time. Based on my understanding of the system, it may (or may not) be more lenient if it's a single instance across dozens/hundreds of games, though that is mostly speculation based on information provided by Riot and what I've seen in certain cases. Generally, Riot will only be harsher on newer accounts if they can be identified as alternate accounts from users who've exhibited such behaviours previously (and mainly those who've previously been banned).

Worst comes to worst, you're looking at a 14-day ban, and if that happens it may just be a good idea to disable both "all" and "team" chat in the games options, if you think that's going to be effective for you.

Someone told me to kill myself ingame , i reported and i kept checking his op.gg , dude was never banned. So maybe not.

Yes, you will get punished for it.

If you had a 14 day ban before (not too long time ago), then perma. If not, or it was very long time ago (and you played a lot of games), then 14 day ban.

It's a single tolerance word so if you only said it once, you will most likely be fine. Contrary to what most here will tell you (without any evidence, mind you), their zero tolerance policy is not actually zero tolerance.
