Since the block size of AES 256 is 256, how would we calculate the bytes of data AES 256 encrypts at one time?

There are ways of doing AES in parallel, so you could be doing a bunch of bytes at one time, crypto.stackexchange.com/questions/34740/…

AES has always 128-bit block size with 128,192 and 256-bit keyspaces. Therefore, you can encrypt 16-byte at a time if you are using ECB and CBC modes. By using CTR mode you can encrypt 1-bit to 128-bit.
Some people confuse AES with Rijndael where AES is a variant of the Rijndael. Some old libraries use the Rijndael (see RijndaelManaged). Rijndael can have 128, 160, 192, 224, and 256-bit block size. Note that these are not standardized, see FIPS 197.

@joshkmartinez Yes. 128 & 256 refer to the key size, not the block size. The block always remains at 128 bits/16 bytes. One way to look at it, is that the AES block (rectangular) gets deeper, rather than wider.
