Is this because the torrent sites are using cloudfare on their end? If so, seems like a simple solution

Torrent sites use Cloudflare to hide their origin IPs, among other things, so just not using it isn't an easy option.

Easier for torrent sites to tell people to use VPNs.

That seems less plausible than other pirate sites, random asshole teenagers, or even streaming companies DDosing them.
