Unfortunately it is only possible to do 90° rotations this way. The only thing I can make for you is an easier conversion to a draw object but in my opinion the best thing to do in your case is to adjust the angle in an external tool like GIMP for example. To have such an tool built-in is also a good idea - but not so trivial to make.

This makes the task of importing images/graphs into OpenOffice unneccessarily difficult and complex. Since OpenOffice already has a gazillion of options about images, it's quite amazing that it cannot rotate them.
