Ok, I also managed to connect to my relays using Tor Browser (how didn't I think about it?) but nothing loads. Also tried to connect to Snort and Nostrudel onion relay and nothing.
How this setup works normally for you?

Your issue was probably that you tried to connect to Tor relays over clearnet? So you at least need to make sure that the connection to a Tor relay is routed through Tor.
In my experience (using nostrudel and snort), I usually add the relay, then need to reload the page for it to actually connect (or at least show it's connected). Then the events usually pops up in the feed right away.
Is it possible to route that specific tor connection over clearnet through tor? Something like a split
You can route clearnet URLs over Tor but not tor onion urls ovee clearnet essentially.
Mobile apps and desktop apps could probably pack a tor daemon in the app to route any onion url over Tor automatically. IIRC, Amethyst did this? Is that correct nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z?
No, Amethyst relies on the Tor proxy provided by Orbot. Routes throigh Tor allor nothing. I find websockets working over Tor surprisingly well. Once the connections are established with a few seconds delay the speed is acceptable. Amethyst is well usable over Tor of needed.
On the list, but we never found a stable Tor library to use inside Amethyst. Much less one that we can control the routes to avoid routing everything through the same nodes.
