Why did you make it so complicated? It could be so easy like in InDesign: Import out drag and drop image in XD. It has automatically a frame which I can now resize (and the image inside do not move or something else) to make my best cutout of my image. If I'd like to change this I just double click and can move the image. If I'd like to change the shape I can convert from rectangle to ellipse/star/triangle. In XD it's so hard to get the frame of the image. Double clicking a lot to catch the frame and have to change the default responsive adjustments … The image always move around and I don't know how to catch.

If I use a mask and use double clicking to catch the image, sometimes I drag the image inside it's automatically mask. So I have two masks and the confusion is there …
