@Emrah252875449yv4 – When you first posted back in July, I suggested that you check out the automated geometry correction features of the Camera Raw Filter, which can be scripted and then batch applied to PNG or PSD files. You didn't reply.
If these images were TIFF, JPEG or HEIC then you could batch apply directly using the Adobe Camera Raw plug-in.
I recently looked into something else that concerned rectangles in Photoshop and parts of that could maybe be applied here.
With the supplied image it seems to work, but I expect the worse the layers’ edges the less the result would be meaningful.
// rotate active layer if it is roughly rectangular;
// 2022, use it at your own risk;
if (app.documents.length > 0) {
var myDocument = activeDocument;
loadTransparency(false);
makeWorkPath (3);

var theAngles = new Array;

for (var m = 0; m < thisOne.length-2; m++) {
if (m == 0) {var thePrevious = thisOne.length-3}
else {var thePrevious = m-1};
if (m == thisOne.length-3) {var theNext = 0}
else {var theNext = m+1};
theDistances.push(getDistance(thisOne[m][0], thisOne[thePrevious][0]));
theAngles.push(getAngle (thisOne[m][0], thisOne[theNext][0]));
thePoints.push(thisOne[m][0]);
};

else {
if (theDistances[n] > 5) {
theAngle = nextAngle;
theResults.push(thePoints[n])
}

// create path array;

var angle3 = getAngle(anArray[0][2][0], anArray[0][3][0]);
var angle4 = getAngle(anArray[0][3][0], anArray[0][0][0]);
