The main reason for 1854 war was British policy of having exclusive control over all oceanic straits. So they couldn't allow Russia to have control over Dardanelles.
Far from what happens today. France and UK do not have muscle to do anything against Russia anymore. The only serious player is US but Trump won't lift a finger for Turkey. Since everything is happening on Syrian soil, which makes Turkey an aggressor, NATO have no legal excuse to do anything. Russia is free to do with Turkey as it see fit for so long as Assad is formally agrees. And Assad is not in the position to disagree with Russia.
