I've done a couple more complex things to cure this problem
Use a moto-tool to trim off the box.
You should also be able to get a hack saw blade in between the stud and
the box and cut off the nails that hold the box in. Slide the box back
and run screws or nails through the side of the box to hold the correct
location.
Peace,
Pat
