The Torch wormhole is a deathtrap if you enter from the Torch end. Why has not been determined (at the Torch end) but the Harvest Joy has not show up anywhere so the wormhole is presumed to be "unhealthy".
The Aligment isn't going to be using it to exit the shadow network because that would raise all sorts of questions about what is happening. A ship transiting the wormhole to the Torch end is going to produce 1) some noticable fluctiation at the wormhole and, at minimum, there is going to be some kind of instermentation parked there to keep an eye on it- at least from a point of scientific interest 2) any ship comming out if it and bringing up it's impellers is going to raise the same concern. How can someone -who doesn't hang around- use that wormhole and where do they a) come from b) go
While Manticore is unlikely to sacrafice another crew (Solly SD availability not withstanding) they and Torch and Haven and our friends at Smoking Frog and Ewrhon are all going to be really intereted in some ship comming out of that wormhole and open a conversation the Alignment really doesn't want started.
