Is there a way to minimize shape nodes intersections after applying layout objects (especially interested in SpringLayout) ?

You might run only a few iterations of AnnealLayout as a fine-tuning phase, starting with a low InitialTemperature value and with all costs except NodeDistribution set to 0. This should pull nodes apart a bit. Make sure Randomize is disabled and set LayoutArea to diagram.GetContentBounds().

I hope that helps,
Stoyan
