Question about IP leakage through torrents or other applications that cannot be used through the TOR

On the torproject website, I read that torrent programs are able to get my real ip address through GET requests (bypassing tor). Please, tell me, is this threat relevant to Qubes-Whonix? Do I risk leaking my real IP address if I install an unverified app, or torrent app on my whonix-ws? Or is it not possible by isolating the virtual machine?
Thanks

Your IP won’t leak since whonix-ws can’t see it:

However you should not use torrents over Tor, since they overload the network. Please use torrents in I2P instead.
