I've liberated Latvia a week or two ago. The country has 0 IC - as new provinces have no IC, and need to be rebuilded. How this country can rebuild itself with no IC?

There is a very slow free rebuild factor. Latvia will be rebuilt within a couple of months. 
Thanks
While I'm on it - I also liberated Ukraine, and it received 15 or so free IC. I checked it loading as Ukraine. Why so much? Not, that I'm complaining, but it's weird.

Maybe because it's a relative big country in a region that was fairly industrialized?
I have noticed that even back in the vanilla HOI2 games, liberated countries that didn't exist at the start of the game usually recieve some sort of IC compensation, unless they are major players that are meant to be liberated, like DDR or FRG. If you liberate someone like Israel, they usually end up having between 5 and 10 base IC, which is event-driven, since there is maybe 1 or 2 IC on the map within Israel's borders. I didn't realize that Ukraine got such an event.
But back on topic, I have noticed some countries just have the hardest time ever rebuilding themselves. In a recent game as Nationalist China, the Soviet Union ended up conquering all of Europe when it defeated Germany, and when DDR was liberated, it must have taken them a year and a half to finally get back to its maximum capacity. I'm assuming that this is as a result of Nazi Germany scorching the land as they fell back, so actually it's fairly realistic in that instance.
I think it's a great feature that really gives new meaning to things like Strategic bombing and such. I just wish that the automated sliders had a "Prioritize Infrastructure" checkbox.

Yep, I noticed it also. Estonia and Latvia didn't receive any IC after liberation - maybe because they existed in the beginning of scenario. Iceland and Ukraine, which had not, received free IC. Ukraine 3 times more, maybe because of size. So Chicken's theory works here.
So how much Russia would receive? And would FRG receive any?

Russia and FRG won't get any IC via event, but they already have a more than solid IC base.
