For that particular case and most others it should be required at the very least to sacrifice the torch if not gather more fuel to kindle a hotter and larger flame appropriate to the destruction of the structure type. It would seem pretty unrealistic for a palisade to go up in flames by just waving a flaming piece of linen around it for a few seconds/minutes.
..also, flaming arrows, go!
If you want to go here, then maybe it should cause a massive cave-in that would require more mine supports to be placed to cleared out, making the system ripe for griefing and harder for players to clear out a cavernous area to build an underground village. That's another discussion for another thread, though.
