Same shortcodes are not able to nest so the div shortcode with field class can be used as a substitute.Shortcode arguments cannot contain square brackets, so double parenthesis can be used instead.

How do we tell it where to send the form response?
These shortcodes are basically regular HTML form elements, so you can treat it as such. For example you could handle it with PHP. But this is advanced and requires manual coding. If you need a simple contact form then go with a plugin like CF7 instead.
