Long story short I have Cervelo S5 frame with stock rotor bottom bracket pressed in, and FSA Gossamer BB386 EVO crank. I don't have any additional spacers and wave washers. After "proper" installation there is a side play of about 6-8 mm caused by too long crank spindle. First question is if it's possible to use FSA crank with rotor BB. If an answer to 1st question is "yes" than, what should I do to get rid of a gap between BB bearings and crank arm.

What do you mean by "adapter"? New FSA bottom bracket or some spacer for rotor?

a 9.5 mm spacer between right crankarm and rh side bearing should do it

I hate to bring up a dead topic but I am looking to get a 386 evo crank for a bbright cervelo. I have no idea where to find this spacer, yes I checked the 2014 fsa catalog. Does anyone have a link where I can buy it?

Rotor 3d+ is essentially a bb386 crank. Whatever is required to install it on a Cervelo, should fit your crank. Disclaimer: I do not have a BBRight frame, so I do not have actual experience
