I've got an Acer Aspire E5-773G notebook with those graphics-related specs:

Card-1: Intel Sky Lake Integrated Graphics
Card-2: NVIDIA GM108M [GeForce 940M]
Display Server: X.Org 1.18.3 driver: nvidia Resolution: 1920x1080@60.03hz
GLX Renderer: GeForce 940M/PCIe/SSE2 GLX Version: 4.5.0 NVIDIA 367.35

I would like a keyboard shortcut that rotates the screen (internal display) ±90°.

In System Settings → Screen Display, the Rotation setting only has the option Normal though.

xrandr --rotate fails rotating the screen:

bytecommander@BC-AlkaliMetal:~$ xrandr --output eDP-1 --rotate right
xrandr: output eDP-1 cannot use rotation "right" reflection "none"

bytecommander@BC-AlkaliMetal:~$ xrandr --output eDP-1 --rotate left
xrandr: output eDP-1 cannot use rotation "left" reflection "none"

Here's the output of plain xrandr as well:
