To help with the foot rotation you can point your right knee inward a little bit. Sometimes it helps to move the seat forward one notch to accommodate the slight knee bend.
I’ve driven a LOT of cars, and using this technique I have yet to encounter one that I couldn’t heel and toe easily.

Looks like he's able to heel-toe with his foot at about 11:00. In most of my cars (wife's Subie excepted), I'd have to be at more like 10:00 (narrow foot, wide pedal spacing) and I don't think it rotates that far without discomfort.

What jumped out at me was the fact that he was wearing loafers in the first place (rather than some sort of tie-up thin-sole shoe).
