Streaming sites would have layers of security to prevent that from happening and yet the torrent sites upload the movies within hours of release or stream it live without delay.

No security is perfect. Regardless of the security features implemented, the system ultimately has to be able to take the video file from the internet and parse it into visual and audio data.
So, the ripper has to simply find the way around the security. That might be by inspecting and intercepting the data coming fron the server, it might be by tricking the system into ignoring the screen recording software, or it might be by bypassing the security altogether by rerecording the video with a projector display and a decent camera in a quiet room.
I don’t have specifics, because 1) I don’t do that very much and 2) the methods vary based on what you are trying to do.
One example that I can show is [this clip I made off an episode of Super Sentai](https://youtu.be/PgRF8b0ey1Q), where I used an app based streaming service and the Windows Game Bar to record the clip, since the system can’t tell the difference between the app and a video game.
But if I tried to record using the Android version of the app, it would just be a black screen.
