As long as knee is stable you can do quads and hamstring exercises. Consult orthopaedic dr in person after two months just to check the knee. ACL tear with out meniscal tear and stable knee can be managed conservatively

A complete ACL tear needs an operation. You have no option here. Because it not only leaves you with instability but also it damages or joint very fast.
Next Steps
operation as soon as possible
