The damage was done by two fine goals from the Spaniard in the first half and Chelsea could not find a way back into the match despite dominating after the interval.
But the Blues remain two points clear of nearest rivals Manchester United at the top of the table and Ancelotti admitted he could have few complaints.
"Liverpool played very well and at 2-0 down it was difficult to come back in the game," he said.
"To come here and lose can happen - Liverpool are a good team - but we have to be positive, we played a fantastic game in the second half.
"We are still top of the table. It's impossible to win every game, sometimes you lose but the team showed the same mentality and strength. We don't have to react - we have to win the next game."
Speaking about Torres, Ancelotti added: "He scored two fantastic goals and he showed he was fit and has come back from not a good moment. He is a fantastic striker."
Ancelotti's own star striker, Didier Drogba, only came on at half-time after being surprisingly named among the substitutes at the start.
But the Italian defended his selection, explaining: "Drogba had a fever last night and was not 100 per cent fit so I decided to play him for just one half of the game."
