Short answer is yes, it can be repaired. I don't think the wing is actually buckled and, even if it was, it can still be repaired.

Will it be repaired? That's another question entirely. There are all of the same insurance, parts availability, and other such questions that are asked when we damage our own vehicles. Airlines have the added incentive to repair stemming from having to give up the routes that the damaged aircraft would be flying, so I've seen some decisions based upon that criteria when the damage outweighs the value of the aircraft.
