Real torches don’t burn forever, movie torches are just props and are as realistic as the mummies, vampires, and other imaginary parts of movies. That said, torches aren’t just sticks. They generally had a coating or container of a slow-to-burn oil or wax, which made them burn more like a candle than a log. That said, a real torch with a huge flame would burn quite quickly, in order to make a long burning torch it would need to have a smaller, less hungry flame.
