The only challenge in the above problem was to use escape sequence for the backslash('\') character and to write a special case for the 'https:\\' as that is the only string where '\/' has to be replaced with a backslah whereas everyehere else it has to be replaced with forward slash.
The below code works according to your use case:
Account acc = [SELECT Id,Description FROM Account WHERE Name ='test String']; String s = acc.description; s = s.replace('https:\\/\\/','https:\\\\'); s = s.replace('\\/','/'); System.debug(s);Replace the description field with your text field.

Hope this helps,
