Torres hasn't scored in South Africa despite starting four straight games including Saturday's 1-0 quarterfinal win over Paraguay.
Del Bosque says Torres is "a reference" point of Spain's attack but "saying this doesn't mean he's an untouchable."
Torres scored the winning goal in Spain's 1-0 victory over Germany in the European Championship final two years ago.
The 26-year-old Torres arrived at the World Cup recovering from knee surgery. He hasn't scored in a competitive international since the Confederations Cup a year ago.
