Q: 90 days rule for adjustment of status and applying for parents greencards

We just became US citizens and I want to adjust the status of my parents by getting them their greencards. I read about the 90 days rule, is it absolutely necessary and if I file before that will USCIS deny their greencards? They have been travelling on a B2 visa for more than 15 years and never overstayed or shown any intent to stay here. How do we file earlier than the 90 days and show that there was no immigrant intent?
