if the message is the bot's, then just do await message.edit(...)
you can get the message from await bot.rest.fetch_message(id)

Or just do bot.rest.edit_message(id, ...)

and when i send a message with my bot like that: bot.rest.create_message(self.BOT_LOG_CHANNEL, info, attachment=file_backup) if i give to the result of the func a var, can i take the id of the created message or not?

create_message returns the created msg object
so you can use it directly to manipulate the message
via the .edit() method
