IMHO, if this is the biggest "error" you have in the build, you did alright.
I concur !!
Vertical stab showing a little lean forward I am quite sure that it will not affect the performance or control of your model. If it really bothers you, you could add some balsa sheeting to the back the stab and sand or carve to correct for the lean.
One other solution, even though it may sound like it is a little distract, would be to get some CA DEBONDER and debond the vertical stab. Then just rebuild it to your liking and specs.
Personally, I would leave it alone. Folks, including myself have made much bigger mistakes and their models turned out just fine.
That is, until they hit the ground !
Just kidding of course !!
