iCloud is a syncing service. If you deleted a message from your phone, the next iCloud backup would have picked up that action and automatically deleted the message from iCloud.
If you have installed iOS 16 on your phone, try the following:
Tap Messages > Edit > Show Recently Deleted
If the message was deleted in the last 30 days, it will be in Recently Deleted
Tap to select the message, then tap Recover at the lower right of the screen
If the messages are not in Recently Deleted, they are gone.
