| This happens sometimes. I currently have an Encyclia doing the same thing. the roots are growing up over the top opf the bract then curving down towards the potting mix. dead, dried up bracts can be removed it they are proving detrimental, but if you were to remove them now I doubt the roots would straighten out. I've noticed on my orchids that roots have a tendency to grow a certain way then stay that way.
