Interesting question!

Perhaps it should be 'Distort' to conform with the other entries. So
it seems to me that;

Blur is being used as a verb (eg, Select from this list to blur), so
to conform with the others, you are correct, it should be "Distort"

Hmm, but what about filters that blur, enhance, combine, map, or
render?

Distort filters is correct. (Filters that distort)

Distorts is correct for the menu entry. (A number of distort filters)
