Only if he got to the ball, which the ref had no way of knowing. Which is why he correctly gave O'Shea a yellow.

Judging by the way he hit the deck so easily, Torres himself obviously didn't think he would get to the ball (Unless he was just trying to get a fellow professional sent off of course).
