I'm trying to decorate the output of images, but changing the imageresults.html doesn't affect anything. I've already tried deleting everything, but the results page looks the same. How to edit images search layout?

You have to restart the service for it to take effect.

Also the imageresults.html template is only used when the "View Full Size Image" config is enabled. It's a hacky workaround used for allowing desktop users to access the full size images that Google only serves to mobile searches.

If you want to edit the image search layout, you either can enable that config setting and continue editing imageresults.html, or you could rewrite the search code to always use that template for image searches.
