I apologize to how hurry this meeting is. vs I apologize for how hurry this meeting is.

Both phrases are incorrect. The correct phrase should be: "I apologize for how rushed this meeting is." The preposition 'for' is used to express the reason for the apology, and 'rushed' is the correct adjective to describe the meeting.
