You're creating so many bitmaps and you're not disposing them. Every single IDisposable must be explicitly disposed when you're finished with them.

Try this and see if the error goes away:

public static void CutImage(Image image)
{
    using (Bitmap source = new Bitmap(image))
    {
        using (Bitmap cuttedImage = source.Clone(new System.Drawing.Rectangle(250, 0, 5550, 4000), source.PixelFormat))
        {
            using (Bitmap copyImage = new Bitmap(cuttedImage.Width, cuttedImage.Height, System.Drawing.Imaging.PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb))
            {
                using (Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(copyImage))
                {
                    g.DrawImageUnscaled(cuttedImage, 0, 0);
                    copyImage.Save(@"path\tmp.jpg", System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg);
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
