Thanks for your suggestions. I have formated correctly both Nintex Form number fields and Sharepoint columns. They show the correct number with thousand separator as below image.

But when I insert the variable was stored number into the email body, it was not have thousand separator, I have used "Build String" to build custom HTML body

html body

I think the possible way is "regular expression" but I have tried many methods but it was not working.

In your workflow, try adding a "Set Variable" action and configure it like the screenshot below.  It takes a number list column, formats it as currency, and saves it into a text workflow variable that can be used in the email. Make sure to click the three dots (...) beside the Field selection to select the return type.
