I assume you are talking about the Halo ring shown to us on Forge World. In that case, I believe it's just how it shows in the skybox. At the time of development the skybox could have went to wrong position and made the ring look like skewed. Then Bungie didn't think it as bad enough to be fixed. As you can clearly see in this picture from Halo CE, the ring isn't scewed.
If that isn't good enough to you, I have another theory. It may be because of the formation of the landspace. What I mean is that when you are on a landscape which mostly slopes slightly to a direction. To you this looks like you are standing on flat ground but in fact, you are standing on a slope. It's an optical illusion. This could be the case with Forge World.
Thanks!
Halo Nation:The Halo ring in the skybox does not extend straight up, but bends to one side. This is because the inside of the ring is concave, if it was flat, the centrifugal force caused by the ring's spinning to simulate gravity would cause objects to fall sideways and the artificial atmosphere to become unstable and escape the ring. This implies that Forge World takes place closer to the edge of the ring.
