Please post the crc32 of your rom. It appears onscreen when you load it, and is stored in rominfo.txt (found with your saves), or you can use NSRT to get it.

Download a ROM image that has not been corrupted. If you rename the new ROM to the exact same filename as your old one, your older battery saves and savestates should carry over.

It might be a bad idea though. I think it has been showned that savestates are not meant to be universal. For example,a savestate that was made with version 1.0 might not work with version 1.1 of that game. Likewise, a savestate that was created with a corrupt rom might screw things up if you use it with a good rom. You might end up with the same problem.

Even using SRM with other rom versions might potentially induce problems.

Well, you've been warned. I know it suck to start an RPG all over though

I don't think that there are multiple revisions of ToP aside from partial translation patches. If the same patch is applied to the good ROM, then good savestates should still apply.
