Is there any denomination which teaches that God never commanded burnt offerings and sacrifice to Israel?

No, not really. The closest we get is the Marcionites, a Gnostic sect who rejected the Old Testament and believed the God of the Israelites was a different and inferior god to the god of the New Testament.

Nevertheless, this question would never rise or fall on the translation of Jeremiah 7:22 since there are tons of extended passages in the Old Testament where God does prescribe burnt offerings and sacrifices.

The ESV translation is getting at the fact that God is mainly angry that his voice has not been heeded, not that he hasn't had enough sacrifices. His evidence is that when the Israelites came out of Egypt, he didn't give them any instruction about sacrifices until they made it to Siani. His only requirement was that they would follow his voice and obey him.
