You could use one of the exec commands or preferably if possible rewrite the .reg file into nsis script.

Why not use the NSIS registry commands?

When you called regedit, did you use the paramter /s?
See a little tutorial.
Now you can use ExecShell ;)

GetTempFileName $R0
File /oname=$R0 E.reg             ; copy myreg.reg to <uniquefilename> on target PC
ExecWait 'Regedit.exe /S "$R0"'   ; merge the copied file into the registry (silently)
Delete $R0                        ; delete the temporary file
