This happens to me and others that I know as well. It's not specific to the Torch, it seems to be attributable to the Gmail plugin for BlackBerry. I too have the "keep forever" setting turned on.

Re: Torch deleting my email messages more than 30 days

setting to forever applies to new emails and not the existing ones

 

I dont know if the plugin does it at 30 regardless of the setting and will take 30 days to know for sure

Yes, new Gmail emails older than 30 days disappear on the BB with the Gmail plugin even with the "forever" setting.  You have to use the "search remotely" to find any email messages beyond 30 days.  If you Google "Blackberry Gmail 30 days" and you will find posts like this:
