I added excluded folder to Security & Privacy settings and I followed this instructions but all of them seem to be working only when using Unity Dash search.

Inside System and Home Dir. I could find two files with configuration that belong to Synapse, file synapse:

?package(synapse):needs="X11"\
              section="Applications/File Management"\
              title="Synapse"\
              command="synapse" \
              hints="GNOME,Utility"

and config.json:

{
  "ui" : {
    "global" : {
      "ui-type" : "default",
      "show-indicator" : false
    }
  }
}

Can I somehow prevent it not to use my specific folder in Synapse search results or it's a different file/app that needs to be edited?

There appeared to be a confusing explanation to my issue, in order to blacklist/exclude activity in desired folder I had to provide a complete path to every folder in subfolders section. Because I blacklisted a folder which has subfolders in it and the funny thing that adding this folder to excluded ones on Security & Privacy settings wasn't enough to block its subfolders in Synapse for some reason it let it through. I don't understand why it doesn't block its subfolders activity when the main (desired) folder is excluded/blacklisted? I guess it's a different question but anyways providing a complete path to each folder solved my issue.
