Shift linkage cable problem

So recently I found out that my shift linkage cable isn't working correctly. The bushing was broken and I suspect it's either that the bushing wasn't the correct one. Or it's because the cable seems to be rotated at a 45 degree angle outward, causing pressure on the bushing which is amplified when shifting. I'm pretty sure this rotating isn't right since I seen several videos of people DYI fixing this cable and their cable has no rotation. Does anyone know how to fix this?
