Those torture memos written by Jay Bybee and John Yoo, have been widely discredited. Just because those two clowns said that torture was legal, doesn't make it so.
The fact remains the issue of torture was considered. Reasonable efforts were made to stay on the right side of the issue and stop short of torture. Using outliers like people unintenrionally dying from exposure do not make this program torture, it indicates there were some unfortunate occurances while prisoners were being questioned. As these deaths were not delibrate they were likely investigated and corrective measures put in place to mitigate them in the future.
No torture was conducted.
