Use the adjacent keys as splints to glue the key back to the appropriate angle.
Pay attention to the straightness of the bottom of the keystick as well.

Wax paper between the keys helps to keep them from sticking together.
Keep the balance rail hole clear of glue.

Reinforce the side of the key with a piece of veneer or fiberglass cloth.
