As others already said, it should be "/var/log/tor" without a space and
with a slash.

But for me, it looks like you are trying to store the logs in a file
"/var/log/tor/log", so in a directory named "/var/log/tor". You should
delete the file you created with the touch command and instead use
"mkdir /var/log/tor", then change ownership and modify access rights via
chmod.
