    How long did this happened from the beginning? Your site should be restored after Google aware on your fixed. It could take around 2-4 weeks.

    Why your site lost link popularity? This is like when one site has become a parked domain and link popularity dropped. Your site was penetrated with malware and no safety. Google has to put you out of search results first and all factors toward the site have to be reduced. There are many webmasters abused by lure peoples from Google and got them infected with malwares by intention. That's why Google has a lot of aware on this malware infected websites.

    P.S. I am not expert :) Just answer only what I knows.
