I believe you have made a mistake, Idril was rescued, but Turgon could not get to Elenwë in time. I think that being buried or crushed in ice, or drowned in icy water, could have easily killed an Elf, because that is enough to kill any hroa. Not even a Maia could survive being buried in ice for a very long time.
