What is exactly the problem? Does the font still appear in the list?

If you are using the latest NSIS 2 version, you can use $FONTS for the Fonts directory.

The problem is that the fonts forces seem always registrered, when I
launch Word, it are in the list of the fonts then
which are removed in registry and directory fonts

During my research for FontName plugin and the font registration pages in the archive I found that fonts will remain in the application lists while

1: GDI32::RemoveFontResourceA funtion is not called.
2: Any application still has a loaded font list.

Thus if any background program uses a font list your PC or those programs will need to be restarted before the font is removed from these lists.

As a note I noticed that even though the fonts are displayed in the lists they are no longer available for use and other fonts are substituted if the user selects that font.
