Ive dont this, i dont quite remember what i ended up doing but it was either just move it out of the way like you are trying, but i think i just ended up removing the alternator itself anyway.
From your pic it does look like you have just enough room that you can stick the torx bit in there to loosen it. Or wait i possibly remover the top bracket part

I got it!!!! After a couple hours and some guidance from an inspection camera I got it! .....of course I lost the socket time and time again. I found it a few times but who knows where it is now.

These sockets should work much better for getting in-between the alternator. I was using short sockets previously which kept popping off the extension I was using. I lost my E8.
$8.99 for the set at harborfreight. I love that store. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just remove the alternator, take the bolts out, rotate the alternator and pull it towards the radiator. It comes out pretty easily.
That will give you all the room you need. There is no room to move the alternator out of the way without pulling it out since it resides in what's basically a hole.
