Hi.  I’ve found if you press enter on a message it let’s you copy the text.   
press command w to close.
another way I have done it is to

•make sure quick nav is on 
•jump to the text as usual with vo j, 
•you should be able to navigate the text with your left and right arrow keys, 
if not interact with the text.
•, find the part you want to copy, press vo command f 5 
•press vo enter voice over should say selecting
•press vo enter again when you’ve finished selecting
•press command c to copy
I hope both these methods work for you.
