Abstract: We show that, in Einstein-Cartan theory, the torsion scalar modifies the dust-like equation of state of non-interacting holographic dark energy with the Hubble radius as the infrared cutoff, enabling late-time cosmic acceleration within the low-redshift domain of validity, which is not realized in the corresponding model in general relativity. Using the same holographic dark energy background, we further derive the torsion-induced modification of the cosmic distance duality relation, dL = dA(1 + z)2(1 + 7). In the late-time universe, the magnitude of the deviation parameter, |7|, is small but non-vanishing, reflecting the cumulative effect of torsion along the light-propagation path.
