Basically, if something says 'target <whatever>, then that means it targets.

So, for example, lets say that there is a card that stuns a character, with the following texts:

Stun target character
This targets a character

Target opponent stuns a character they control
This targets the opponent, even though it's a similar effect.

Choose a character an opponent controls. Stun that character
This doesn't target, because it says 'Choose' instead of target.

Now, in the case of Torch, he would prevent the first one (because you can't target his characters) and he'd prevent the second one (because you can't target the opponent, either). He wouldn't prevent the third one (because it doesn't target)

Ah, and forgot an important part of those examples. Something that had text like:

Stun all characters with a cost of 1

Wouldn't be effected either, because it doesn't target.
