I took apart my keyboard, cleaned it, and put it back together. The right shift key sticks now.

I still remember the day I stuck the top part of my keyboard in the dishwasher.  Yea, it got clean... it also got replaced.

Do you have a hammer?    Kidding.

Pop the key and see if any solvent, etc remains. Or maybe not seated squarely.

I clean a keyboard by turning it upside down and shaking the hell out of it. Crumbs, cat hair.... it's all good.

I may have fixed (or improved) it by taking it off, looking at it, and putting it back on again. Several times.
