Both rotate and move tools have an option to apply on the selection; maybe 
other tools have it, too.

Use the "Transform selection" button in the tool options for the
Rotate tool. Described here:

You need to check the 'Selection' button next to 'Transform' in the
Rotate Tool's options, as Akkana pointed out.  Then you are rotating
the selection itself and not the contents.
