Does the RPi crash? Or does Tor crash?
What happens when the crash happens? Does the device reboot? Does it
stay in some unrecoverable, sad state? Or something entirely different?

Are you sure the power supply is able to supply the RPi during longer
peak periods of CPU activity?
Have a look at this table[1] and make sure that your power supply allows
enough current for the RPi to run in a stable manner. I have seen some
stability issues with an RPi where I used a random power supply that was
not powerful enough.
You could try to artificially create CPU load on the system and see if
it becomes unstable after a while.

Difficult to say at this point. We need a bit more information here.
All the best,
Alex.
