I know CISSP and i don't think studying for the certificate will give me the skills needed to be a good security researcher

Possessing that certificate is an entry requirement for many security jobs. But from what you are saying you have already conducted your research.
But not the good ones.

The good ones may look askance at it and wonder whatever motivated you to get one.

I know many people in the security industry who are willing to waive the CISSP requirement if you have a CVE on your resume.
Oh that sounds interesting, haven't come accross myself - thanks!
They don't advertise this fact too much. CISSPs are a joke.
That was my thought too , i don't think CISSP has big weight in this industry .
