(I tried to record as good as I could)
So I hit a sidewalk with my rotor really hard and now it’s like this, I don’t have any issue to brake at all but my question is what would you recommend me to do? Should I replace it or leave it like that? My only worry is if the dent can scratch the brake pads??? Does somebody had the same situation ?

If the rotor doesn’t run anywhere, it should be ok.
If it isn’t also bent, I’d get a file and remove any part of it that sticks out. Then it should be fine.
Brake pads will only touch the sides of the rotor so you’ll be okay if the faces are still smooth. However, it looks like you have an Ice-Tech rotor so keep an eye out for any delamination that may occur around the damaged area since the rotor is essentially two pieces of steel sandwiching an aluminum core
