Well for starters the Imperium did lose the Orphrean war because they were fighting against a entire Necron dynasty and not the scattered Necron warr hosts that they have been fighting.

Against that not even the massed might of the guard or the navy could stp them

Hell not even the minotaurs astares chapter could stop them and their chapter master is near indestructable.

As to whether or not the imperium is falling then i would say that they are

because simply put they are fighting too many wars with heretics within and aliens and chaos without. No matter how many guardsmen, warships and space marines you have its still a losing battle.

And because the imperium is so xenophobic an alliance to defeat the true foe of chaos is beyond them

With the necrons remerging in the galaxy, Chaos having a foothold on Cadia and the Tyrainds hive fleets continued advances the imperium will fall despite the bravery of countless guardsmen and naval crewman and space marines
