Hitler did not destroy the Treaty- he simply ignored it.
The Treaty imposed harsh limitations on Germany, including total disarmament of their people, and a severely restricted military. The German Army wasn't allowed to have a General Staff- basically a council of high-ranking generals who would formulate strategies and battle plans. The military also wasn't allowed to use certain technologies, like machine guns and submarines. France and (to a lesser extent) the UK hoped that making Germany very weak would prevent the start of another war.
Almost immediately, and long before Hitler took control, Germany ignored parts of the Treaty. Germany kept their General Staff- they simply renamed it to "Troop Office". They also built up their military, although not to the same levels as before World War I. They invented new kinds of machine guns to get around the ban.
After coming to power, Hitler went even further with it. Part of the Treaty disallowed Germany from having any military forces in the regions bordering France- and Hitler openly ignored it. He also started building up the air force and navy again. The last violation he made was in 1938 when Germany annexed Austria, which was expressly forbidden by the Treaty.
About a year later World War II started and the Treaty of Versailles was officially moot.
