The 60-year-old Frenchman has been suspended along with Fifa president Sepp Blatter and secretary general Jerome Valcke. They deny wrongdoing.
Platini, a Fifa vice-president, is the Football Association's preference to succeed Blatter at Fifa.
The French FA wants the Court of Arbitration for Sport to intervene to ensure Platini can stand for election.
Fifa will hold an emergency meeting on 20 October in Zurich to discuss February's presidential election, at which a successor to Blatter will be chosen.
Platini has also won backing from South America's football confederation following his suspension by Fifa's ethics committee.
Conmebol said he should be regarded as innocent until proven guilty.
