報むくいるN1
報いる is the transitive verb meaning 'to reward/repay someone', while 報われる is its intransitive counterpart describing the subject itself being rewarded.

実みのるN2
実る literally means 'to bear fruit' and is often used figuratively for effort paying off, much like 報われる, but it emphasizes a tangible result ripening rather than a fair reward being given.
救すくわれる
報われる means one's efforts are rewarded, while 救われる in this sense means a negative situation is redeemed or offset by something positive.

報ほうじるN2
報じる shares the kanji 報 with 報われる but means 'to report (news)', a completely different meaning from 報われる's 'to be rewarded'.
