I tried launching the game through wow.exe, but I get an error.

It says ACCESS_VIOLATION . . . the memory could not be read.

I downloaded the client through the torrent. Any ideas?

Have you tried deleting the Cache folder?

Yes, the same error still occurs. The only thing I would think of its either a problem with the launcher or since it has the try . . . exception error of access violation, I'm assume its my pc and the launcher is unable to open something.

Issue Solved - The problem is Windows 10 anniversary update. Below is Blizzard's solution for it.
