Thank you for your report! Unfortunately, we have closed this issue, as the mechanism shown in your attachment is working as intended.
In order for a piston to be activated by a block beside it, the block must be powered. You tried to do that with a redstone torch, but redstone torches only power solid blocks that are above them, not beside or below them.
