Hi according to some research to get cattleya to rebloom there must be a 10 to 15 degree difference of temperature between day and night. According to American orchid society it states In the summer, a night temperature of 60F to 65F is desirable, while the day temperature ideally should range from 65F to 75F, but an upper limit of 85F is more realistic. Here is the article for reference. https://www.aos.org/orchids/additional-resources/cattleyas-for-the-beginner-part-1.aspx#:~:text=To%20grow%20well%20and%20to,keep%20the%20leaf%2Dtemperature%20down.
Maybe crack the window at night so that cooler air can hit orchid.
