Forward secrecy only helps you if the server private key is comprised in the future. If it's compromised already, and an active attacker can modify traffic between you and the server, forward secrecy doesn't help.
Ultimately, if an attacker has all your keys and controls all your traffic, there's nothing left that distinguishes the attacker from you. No security is possible in that scenario.
