Turns out I managed to get rid of the curses with two masquerades and mitigated the discarding effect with all the minions for a close win (all curses, minions and provinces gone, though I could have tried to three-pile with the shanty towns as well)... but what's your choice?

Definitely Masquerades.  They're one of the best Torturer counters, and Shanty Town is a poor enabler for Torturer anyway.

Masquerade/Minions by a mile. Masquerade is like, the best possible counter to Torturer. And heavy Minion decks actually handle Torturer pretty well, because you can discard down to just a Minion in hand and then draw back up to 4 cards next turn. And this has been debated in another thread, but Shanty Town is one of the worst villages for Torturers (though it's not a horrible village to have if you are being Tortured.)
