Intent: If the purpose is to inflict suffering rather than to challenge, critique, or express an opinion, it leans toward torture.
Duration: Persistent or repeated provocation without respite may escalate to torture.
Intensity: When the provocation is extreme and causes significant distress or harm, it can be considered torture.
Power Dynamics: When the provocateur has disproportionate power over the person, making it difficult for the target to escape or defend themselves.
Context: Situations like captivity, coercion, or situations of helplessness amplify the impact, potentially turning provocation into torture.
