Disclaimer: solved the challenge after the CTF ended. However, it was a nice dive into the QR rabbit hole.
TLDR: The bits are scrambled into a reading order (Left->Right, Top->Bottom). Assemble the bits and rearrange them according to QR standard. Also, the 15bits of format, mask and error correction are missing. Brute-force them to find one combination that works. Scan the resulting QR code for the flag.
