Most likely because the tracker is not mentioned in the block list /etc/hosts/

Did you try using torrent via VPN? Earlier I was facing many issues while Torrenting but thanks to my pal I got to know about this website: https://www.reviewsdir.com/best-vpn-for-torrenting/ where a guide is present about VPN through which I use torrent websites anonymously.
