Yes, the most torrent encryption can accomplish is to escape torrent-specific limits. That doesn't mean you'll escape overall traffic caps, just that they won't be able to determine with certainty you're using bt. They will be able to tell you're moving boatloads of information though and can broaden their shaping rules.
There can be a downside to encrypting. If your ISP provides a QoS allowance for P2P and leaves the rest wide open, by encrypting the torrent traffic you break their allowance system and force them to cap your overall traffic. Depends on the ISP and their policies in your area.
