Most project settings are only read when the project starts. This means changing them at run-time won't apply any visible changes.
https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/classes/class_projectsettings.html#class-projectsettings-method-set-setting

ProjectSettings.set_setting("display/window/handheld/orientation", "portrait")
ProjectSettings.save()

Restart the game and see the orientation has changed. Note that save_custom("filename") is the proper way to do this.

You might be able to accomplish what you're trying to do using a Viewport:
