Your rim cannot be saved. For a wheel to be true and have acceptable uniform tension, the rim has to be round and straight to start with. If you remove all of the spokes and place the rim on a flat surface, it would not lie flat. Get a new rim and rebuild. If it is not too old, you may be able to re-use the spokes.
