apparently in some cases uTorrent, BitSpirit, and libTorrent simply write your IP address directly into the information they send to the tracker and/or to other peers

These are just bad practices by shady bittorrent programs. Choose a good client and you’ll avoid those issues.

The reason why is that Tor doesn’t support UDP and it’s just harmful for the network to do bittorrent over it.
