However, this conclusion doesn't have implications for morality: if I (as a human) think about how'd feel if I torture you, I get the correct answer. It doesn't make my thinking a condemnable act.
Except you don't get the correct answer when you think about it. Your simulation is incredibly abstracted, and your model of the victim does not have much, if any, moral weight. If you had the ability to calculate a precise mindstate, that's the level of simulation that would require moral calculus.
