Love your sewing room, how lucky you are. As for the warping, so sorry to hear about that, but I know plenty of people who hang their rulers on pegboard and have no problem. I agree with some of the other ladies, maybe it's the sun.

How about reversing the rulers to see if they would resume their shape? Or, maybe, a clip of some type at the bottom of the rulers to keep them close to the pegboard.

I also wonder if that could cause her mats to warp if left there very long, or the sun hits them?

Mine have been hanging for years and never have warped . What exactly is that glass thing underneath the rulers, is that a heat source ? Sorry to hear you are having problems.
