qBittorrent doesn't connect to trackers often. To avoid loss download quota, just pause the torrent immediately after completed 100% downloading.

Alternate, you can set torrents to automatic pause when seeding.

If upload quota is important, you have to force reannounce to all private trackers before delete the torrent.
