Dork disk rubbing tiers?

I am making some adjustments to my rear derailleur. I believe I got it in the perfect spot but the dork disk rubs the wheel when in the largest cog. The bike is not in to good of shape and to be honest this is my first time setting up a derailleur. For safety reasons I would like to leave it on. What do I have to adjust to prevent the dork disk from rubbing the tire?

Rubbing the tire?

My dork disk rubs on the chain when on the largest cog just because it's warped.

That being said, if your hanger is bent or your derailleur links are loose, you might have the cable too tight in order to compensate for the shifting slop. That would mean your derailleur would get too close. Give those a check too.
