No, torment is not a curse word.
If you checked your dictionary you would see that, in English, the word means: to cause or to experience severe mental or physical suffering. I suppose that you could adapt its usage to a religious context just as easily as you could to a acute episode of gout.

And, was it because she did something wrong?

She has done nothing wrong.

In a game of chess the queen can only move to where the player chooses to put her.

Black's queen, which has repeatedly been put in danger of being taken by White.

It has nothing to do with curse words.
