Diplomat Reaction Does Not Work

Diplomat reacts to an attack correctly but then the attack happens immediatelly again with the same attack card (in my case Torturer or Militia) and I have to suffer the consequences.

I think this is a misunderstanding about the Dominion rules on your side?

Diplomat doesn't actually stop the attack. You are allowed to respond to the attack to get a nice effect, but then the attack is still happening.

Yeah...you're right, my fault :)
It works with Militia like the other reaction cards because after your turn you'll end up with 5 cards, but with Torturer you'll end up with 4 cards and that confused me.
Now I understand that the beef is the 2 actions even if you have less cards in the end. A rather diplomatic response to an attack not to use force. Got the point :)
