It appears that the hacth is twisted towards the driver side slightly. Larger distance between hatch and roof on passenger side. Need to see under the rear of the car to see if the "push" got into the spare tire well. If you friend can look at the rear ruck from inside and see any bulges or high spots on the trunk floor it has structural damage.
With the age and needing a rear hatch, both rear fenders, lights and bumper cover it's most likly a writeoff.
Sorry to deliver bad news.
