Fascism Still Existed in Europe after WWII in Spain up to 1975. Why didn't NATO intervene?

I am aware that after the civil war, Francisco Franco seized power in Spain and focused on rebuilding his country once the fighting was over; however, there is footage and instances of Adolf Hitler meeting with Franco during his reign. Why is it that the Allies or NATO allowed Franco to continue his rule after WWII. Were they just too exhausted from all the fighting or was the Cold War tension already distracting them? Furthermore, since Franco did not join the Axis and fight alongside Hitler, did the Allies/NATO respect their sovereignty to be ruled by Franco?
