Description
When trying to rotate map in QGIS version 2.18 with point objects displayed as markers in map canvas\map composer problem happens with marker symbols - they have not been rotated. Consequently, the same problem is in the map composer.
So I have to rotate every symbol manually via layer properties dialog - style - marker - rotation. For point object symbols displayed as SVG markers rotation is OK.
In QGIS version 2.6 all works great!
Loaded files contains Qgis project, vector point layer and style for the layer + images.

Thanks for data and screenhots, but the project was not upload and would be very useful. Can you also update to 2.18.10 and see if it makes any difference? thanks.

QGIS 2.6 didn't had the map canvas rotation feature... what was the working version then?

I tried also 2.14 and 2.16 and the behavior is the same. Anyway the reason why you have some symbols rotating and other not is that for the latter you don't have activated the "data defined override (expression) as you did for the first. If you enable it you get the expected results.

Yes, I mean rotation in map composer - open please my project in 2.6 version and you will see in map composer everything was rotated (rotation value is 40 degrees)
(see the picture 2.6 map composer)

I see... but this is possible that was a by design change (need to have the "data defined override (expression)" option active), you should please ask in the Users and/or Developers mailing list (or on IRC), and if is confirmed that this should not be the intended (new) behavior we can reopen the ticket.

Ouhh... I see everything is OK!
But now I have noticed some problem with labelling along lines, when printing in map composer - labels are shifted, I will prepare a project file and vector layer
