I suspect you will need to create an LED Sch component at the angle you want.

Re: [PEDA] Angled components in schematic
Hello, Create them in a 45o position in the library so you can put them simply at 0, 90, 180 or 270 degree orientation on the schematic. The pin endpoints should be on the grid. How do I put parts at 45o ?

Worked a treat.

The difficulty is that the pins then fall off-grid and don't connect. However, you can readily define such a part in the library editor, making the graphics run at the angles you want. I've done bridge rectifiers that way; there, it makes sense to still have the pins sticking out orthogonally. For what you describe, those orthogonal pins may be a pain; you might try a zero-length pin to accomplish what you want.
