You can cancel tasks in EA's Sims Freeplay without it costing a premium currency, I see no reason why they couldn't implement the same for TSTO.
Cancelling wouldn't be completely "free" either, as you would lose the time that character already invested into the task you are cancelling and/or the in-game cash you used to start the case (in the case of things like Channel 6, KBBL, Drive-In, Moonbounce, etc.)
No need to get rid of speed up option either. You can pay donuts, complete the task and get the payout, or cancel for "free" and get nothing. Most I see occurring is people restricting the spending donuts to speed up a task to when the character task they want to clear is part of an ongoing quest they want to clear [i.e. when Homer needed to be free to trigger umpteen things during Halloween, it may have been worth spending donuts to speed up the task, rather than to cancel it for free and lose progress on the task he was performing).
TL;DR: OP's idea is a good one, and it wouldn't kill EA to give us the choice to cancel a task for lost progress, or speed up a task for donuts by offering both options.
