Do you mean the Remastered oracle which will be printed in Player Core 2? It hasn't been released yet, so how do you know it has ruined the character?
If you created this character before November 15th, 2023 then you have a free rebuild option. In that case, you MAY rebuild it into the new Oracle class, or you can keep it built under the old oracle class from the APG.
However keep in mind that any spells/feats reprinted with the same name in the remaster books must be changed to the new rules. Any feats/spells which are NOT reprinted with the same name in the new books can continue to be used from the original printings (but be aware some things like damage cantrips have gotten errata).
However, if you have a rebuild (by virtue of creating it before November 15th) you do NOT have to rebuild the character into an oracle. You can completely rebuild it, changing ancestry, class...everything. You may use a chart in the Organized Play guide to quickly determine how much gold you should have for the new rebuilt character OR you may sell everything you have back for full price and then purchase new equipment with that gold.
Full rules for how the remaster rules affect PFS2 play can be found in the Org Play Guide
There is also a clarification thread for questions.
If, after all is said and done, you still do not like the character at all, there really is no process to "retire" a character. Just don't play them any longer.

Also adding, if you created the character AFTER November 15th you don't have a rebuild (unless Org Play decides otherwise once PC2 is out), but that means you can continue playing your character as it is (with the caveats I mentioned above about errata and reprinted spells/feats/equipment with identical names).

If you would like to stop playing a character, you can simply stop playing them at any time. You can also use a rebuild boon or the free one granted as part of the Remaster to rebuild them into whatever you like, including a totally new class, and keep the XP and credit.

Just stick with your old oracle. I suspect that I will not be remastering Tess.
Oracle was complicated. Most people did not want to play them them or create them so the Remaster simplified oracles and fixed what the non-oracle players wanted from the class.
Unfortunately, for those of us who loved our Oracles and built into the weirdness, the remaster would mean reworking all the parts that we loved and embraced.
I'm hoping that the previews are wrong, and that I will find joy for Tess in Player Core 2. And I am sure that I will learn to embrace the new oracle on a different character, once Player Core 2 drops. The sky is not falling... yet. I'm just glad that we have a grandfathered option.
