I suppose no way. To block torrents you need actually a content filter but not a VPN firewall.

Blocking torrent is challenging,
i manage my virtual hub access list for browsing only (picture attached),
so it won't process any request except ports 80,443,53(dns),67(dhcp response),68 (dhcp request)

Perhaps you need to develop a firewall which is something similar to the Great Firewall. The ports for torrent connections are random. You need make a firewall which can detect and block the hand-shaking of torrent connections. Like the way which the Great Firewall uses to block VPN connections.
