I have a stub-out for my bathroom which exits the wall at a 45 degree angle (roughly). The trap used to be in a vanity, but it's now exposed. Is there such a thing as an escutcheon that will fit at an angle?

A 1 1/4" female FIP adapter worked perfectly. As soon as I saw it, I was embarassed for not having thought of it earlier.
I used some teflon tape, screwed the FIP adapter onto the adapter coming out of the wall, then just glued my 1 1/4" pipe directly into it. No reduction in pipe sizes, and 100% ABS parts.
You must have a vent. The toilet will not flush properly without one, and there will rarely be enough water left in the bowl. You need a 2" vent to take off from the branch line within 6 feet of the toilet. It can run up any convenient wall until it is above the toilet's flood level. Then it can run near horizontally (1/4" per foot) anywhere to tie into an equal or larger vent.
There's any number of ways to properly vent a toilet, and several common ways that are technically wrong, and even more that are just plain wrong. It's impossible to suggest a good method without a lot more information.

I have seen escutcheons shaped like this but don’t know where to buy.
It is possible you could modify one to accommodate the angle. Make the inner circle into an oval.
