The verse implies that Allah reserves the right to move the denizens of hell to heaven, but it does not prohibit him from condemning whomever He wishes to eternity in hell, as nothing can prohibit Allah from anything, being the Most High.
This contradicts with god's names & characteristics. God has 99 names in Islam, each name represents a feature in god. The most famous is "The merciful". So god's acts don't contradict his names.
The tortures is not among the names ; the angry is also not included also in those names. The Quran states clearly that god wished that his acts don't contradict his names & revealed that as number 1 rule in Islam..
Non of the names of god proves that he intends to torture people who don't believe in him for the sake of torture.
So always remember that "the wish of god" is always within the context of his names & characteristics. So your argument is true ; nobody can stop god if he wanted to torture you forever.. but his characteristics don't match with such path.
