Having this issue the last few days, when playing apex my System Process will have high CPU usage and will max out one thread causing CPU to get hotter, The issue only happens when playing Apex and when quitting the issue persists and I have to reboot PC to remedy.
Found this thread on Lost Ark that also uses EAC and users are having the same issue:

*Deleted accidental post*
Exact same behaviour on my system, I have a 5800x for a cpu but it is also the second thread that is stuck at 100% and my CPU temp skyrockets as well.
Same issue with not being able to kill the apex process either.
It is ridicilious,
but it is happening on other games that use Easy anti cheat, like Paladins and Lost Ark (same issues and symptoms those game tasks can't be closed and second thread stuck at 100%)
I really hope it is fixed soon!
