What difference does "contact in the torso" have to do with the actual call on this play?

Answer: Absolutely nothing!

The call is solely dependant on whether the defender had a legal position before the shooter became airborne, and then maintained that legal position. If so, charge. If not, block.

"Contact in the torso" has got absolutely nothing to do with making the right call in this situation.

Btw, is "ref the match-up" the latest buzzword? Personally, I can't see how that differs from "ref the defense" at all.
