I was trying to put some O-rings on my keyboard, and I’ve messed up. I’ve broken a stabaliser, dislodged one and now I don’t know how to fix it. I’ve tried my best to take a photo but the best I have is my laptop webcam; I’m not much of a photographer.

Assuming your talking about pulling out the stabilizers on the number pad area. They just go right back in, one side has a leg that goes in the hole the other side snaps into the pcb. The wire just snaps back in as well.
And it might be easier if your remove the other keys around it to work on it.
Next time be gentler removing caps :))

Yep those are cherry PCB mount stabilizers in your G80-3000 (I think?) there. Notch the one side in and clip the other side into the PCB: should work fine.
It's not too uncommon to happen while removing keycaps: just have to be careful.
