Hmm... I would cut the spike.
Normally I'm not a fan of cutting spikes but with no roots Its better if the plant redirects that energy to growing roots.

Rooting medium or kelp extract might be very helpful in this situation.

A flower spike can be an orchids last attempt to reproduce before it dies.
