B Correct answer
Explanation

Comfort means a state of physical ease, freedom from pain, or consolation. Torture means the infliction of severe physical or mental pain, which represents the extreme opposite state. While 'discomfort' would be the precise antonym, torture represents the most severe form of pain and suffering, opposing comfort completely. Availability, Convenience (related to comfort), and Poise are not antonyms.
