The plant is not frozen nor is it dying. It would take 24 hours direct exposure to below 32 degrees F for the plant to freeze and defrosting a frozen plant at room temperature will make it mushy like you boiled it for an hour. I am sure it was wrapped in paper and the corrugated cardboard of the box serves as an insulator. The room temp was preserved inside the box and deep freeze did not enter it. The postal truck and the post office is heated. The most the plant got exposed to freeze was from the postman's carrying it to your doorstep yet it is inside the box, so there....
I suggest do a water therapy. Get a glass vase and soak the roots in room temp water overnight since you put it in a dry environment (bathroom) when you got it first. Put the plant in the brightest window. Vandas love humidity (I have an electric humidifier with a fan), warmth (my room is at constant 80F) and bright sun. All my Vandas are happy and healthy because I emulate to their habitat in the wild. Adding electric lighting will help.
