I did not try the rename solution, but I had a similar situation where a channel had been deleted and the folder was still in Documents. Because of how folders show up in SharePoint Online now as either "In Channels" or "In Site Library" (my trouble was in the In Site Library), creating a new channel with the same name and deleting it didn't work. However, I was able to go to the site library, click "Edit in grid view" and delete the row with the troublesome folder, and that did actually delete it!

Excellent, worked for us and super easy. We had no delete, rename or move items on the context menu. Opened in grid view, selected the folder and pressed delete. Voila.
