Have you checked the circuit breaker/fuse? It might be something simple and not related to the outlet being a slightly out. Otherwise before you start messing around with it be 100% sure that the power is off to that outlet.

If it's had enough movement that it is coming out of the wall slightly then there might be a connection issue if they are using the push in connectors on the back of the socket.

If it were me I would verify the power is definitely off with a multimeter and pull the socket out to make sure the wires are still snug.

If you’re unsure of what a multimeter is, call an electrician or a buddy who is familiar with testing voltage.
