Thx Nyall, I was just trying QgsMapRendererSequentialJob and it works fine.
I was taking the code from an old plugin from mine...

QgsMapRenderer is very old and was removed in QGIS 3.0. Its
replacement is QgsMapRendererJob with use of QgsMapSettings for the
map parameters.

If you use QgsMapSettings with setRotation this should work without issue.
