Need help rear axle/tensioner came loose while adjusting chain and now won’t tighten or loosen

Hi guys, I was trying to adjust the chain on my bike and something went wrong with the rear axle/tensioner.

I loosened the axle, but the wheel became loose and the adjuster/block seems to have come out of place. I then tried to loosen it again to reset everything, but now the axle just spins and this part is moving around and coming out of its seat.

You can already see marks where it’s rubbing because if I force it, it starts coming out even more.

The wheel is still loose, the bolt won’t come out properly, and I’m scared of damaging the swingarm or threads if I keep forcing it.
