Just call GetItemInfo again:

cache_writer:SetScript('OnEvent', function(self, event, ...)
    if event == 'GET_ITEM_INFO_RECEIVED' then
        local itemID = ...
        if wait[itemID] then
            local _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, texture = GetItemInfo(itemID)
            print(texture)
 
            wait[itemID] = nil
        end
    end
end)

But if you need only icon textures, you're better off using GetItemInfoInstant instead. This way you can avoid this cache voodoo.
