TheWoWDBIf you completed Torment Chamber: Jaina and you are looking for this quest in-game post January 5th, 2021, I just want to confirm that you will have to wait until the weekly reset.
Per Blizzard's recent blue post on the topic:
[Live on NA realms. With regional restarts for other regions] Removed some of the weekly delays between certain Bolvar Fordragon Torghast storyline quests.Unfortunately, this quest did not have its weekly delay removed.

The response I had from Blizzard. Some time gate was removed, but not all. The current time gate is the following:
• Week 1
- Into Torghast
- The Search for Baine
- Explore Torghast• Week 2
- Remnants of Hope
- Information for a Price
- Torment Chamber: Jaina• Week 3
- Finding a Witness
- Lest the Trail Go Cold
- Torment Chamber: Thrall
- Signs of the Lion
This quest is from Bolvar Fordragon in Oribos, but it will also be pushed to you if you enter Torghast and are eligible for it.
You can do this on any layer of the tower, but layer one is obviously the quickest way.
I found the Captive Dredger on the first floor, rather than a higher one, which was nice. You can either complete the layer or head back to Oribos straightaway to turn in the quest.

Description
You have rescued two of our allies from Torghast, but Anduin and Thrall have yet to be found. That tower's corridors are vast... seemingly endless. You could spend an eternity wandering those unholy halls. In your expeditions, you have encountered many unfortunate prisoners. Perhaps one of them has seen or heard something that could guide our search. Seek out any captives that might have the information we need, {name}.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Torment Chamber: Jaina
<Bolvar studies the objects you acquired from the brokers in Torghast.> I sense Lady Proudmoore's magic upon this debris. And these notes describe methods to contain her power. <The Highlord focuses on the items, peering into the darkness.> By the Light! They are tormenting her with white-hot fires.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Lest the Trail Go Cold
From what the captive dredger told you, it seems Thrall has been taken deep into Torghast. The torments he is enduring must be unimaginable. We need to learn where he is being held before the trail goes cold. The tower is vast and perilous. Search where you are able. Bring back any clues you find.
