Cropped/ Rotated Images reverting to random size/ orientation

Question

I wanted to ask if someone has experienced something similar before saying its a bug.
So I wanted to crop an image from its original specs (8192 x 5464) to a 1:1 square image.
 
However once I am done with the crop, lightroom seems to be doing an additional step which changes the image (it seems more stretched than it was when i did the crop). 
 
Original Image:

The moment I select 1:1 overlay, the image is already stretched horizontally. You can see the difference in how the leaf and the bird looks in image 1 (no crop mode) vs 2.

And once i complete the crop, it changes to square but it takes parts that are not in that square also in the image. Refer image below.

A similar issue is also happening on another image where I am trying to crop and rotate. I cannot get it to rotate to the position I want because the angle keeps changing (significantly) after the crop action is over.

This is how the image looks after the crop. The original post did not paste the correct image and looks like I cannot edit it. If you look to the top left of the image, you can see the leaves. I did not select that section when I did the square crop in image 2.
