So I just did a compression test and cylinder numero 3 is at 145 psi while the other 3 are around 175, poured in a bit of oil and it goes up to 175.

You guys think it's ok to drive around with messed up rings for a while or should I rebuild the block soon? Could compression that far apart cause a stumbly/almost stalling idle?

Just realized I forgot to keep open the throttle plate while doing the tests, how does that affect the test?

Should be ok to drive, I just would take it easy...Although it should not have much of an effect at idle though. You could pull the plug wire while it is running and see if it changes a lot. If it doesn't then you basically are only running on 3 cylinders. If it does, you have a separate issue...

And you don't do compression tests with the throttle plate open...so you are good.
