Fusion

I have a complex 3D object that I've created. I'm wondering if there is a way in fusion 360 to do a transform on the object so everything is angled at 45 Deg along one axis. Mathematically, we'd have x'=x; y'=y+z; z'=z, see drawing below.
Note: I realize I can skew a 2D sketch at an angle by sweeping at 45 deg. What I'm looking for is how to transform an existing 3D object (the object is complex, not a simple cube, so redrawing it would be too difficult).

I am guessing the technique for doing this with a Cube will not be applicable to a more complex model since I am changing the angle of the cube internal sketch. Skewing a model directly I think will be hard in Fusion 360 since it does not have a "Stretch" command. Model is attached

The shear tool in Blender will do exactly that.
3MF is a format hosting triangulated meshes and is not a format that works well as design input to Fusiosn360.
To work with this format in Blender you'll first have to find a plugin that reads 3mf into Blender and install it.

Just be aware that to export it into Blender, you'll have to export it into a triangulated mesh format use. obj.
However, be advised that if you want to re-import the object into Fusion 360 and do further modeling work might be very difficult!
