If the shears can be unbolted and taken apart, then do this first. Use WD40, vinger, or a rust removal product from a hardware store. Use a gentle fine wire wool or brush to remove the surface layer. The metal underneath will still probably be discoloured, but you may have to live with that. If you are keen you may use a flat file to to sharpen the cutting edges or remove any dents or burrs. Prevention is far better than cure though, so after pruning, clean your pruners with a suitable lube and store them in a dry place.

Rust refers to a reddish or yellowish-brown flaky coating of iron oxide. Some substances that remove rust from a nail are white vinegar, lime and salt, baking soda and oxalic acid.
I think that the point is: 1) if you have rust, then vinegar that contains acetic acids, will dissolve your rust 2) if the steel or iron doesn't have rust, then vinegar can rust the steel or iron 'cause it contains an acid. I means that acid will corrode steel or iron but even dissolve rust, that is an iron oxide.
Use a wire brush.
