No. Although pressure inside a tornado is lower than normal, it is still closer to normal pressure than it is to a vaccum. In most cases the pressure drop in a tornado is less than 10%.

Air pressure inside the funnel cloud of a tornado is extremely what?
The air pressure inside a tornado is very low.
What is the density inside a tornado?
Air density inside a tornado is about 5-10% less than that of the air surrounding it.
Does a tornado cause the air inside a thunderstorm to spin?
No. It is the spinning air that forms a tornado.
Why don't tornadoes cause the air inside a thunderstorm to spin?
The air inside a tornadic thunderstorm (a storm that produces a tornado) does spin. But it is that spinning air that causes the tornado, rather than the tornado starting the air spinning.
Is air pressure inside a tornado is lower than outside a tornado?
The air pressure in a tornado is lower than that outside the tornado. That is why the wind blows toward the funnel.
Can The eye of the tornado have oxygen in it?
Yes. There is plenty of air inside a tornado, even in the "eye." The pressure is low inside a tornado but certainly not an actual vacuum.
What is in the center of a tornado that is very low?
The air pressure inside a tornado is very low.
What would the air pressure be during a tornado?
Pressure inside a tornado is very low.
Does high air pressure increase tornado rotation?
No. Generally the lower the air pressure inside a tornado the faster it rotates.
Do tornadoes have air inside them?
Yes. A tornado is pretty much made of air. Although pressure inside a tornado is low it is nowhere near being a complete vacuum.
What occurs during a tornado?
Air flows into the tornado and forms a rapidly rotating vortex. Inside the tornado air air flows upward. The winds in the tornado are strong enough to damage or destroy structures and vegetation.
Can you breath in a tornado?
Yes,a tornado has air inside even though the pressure is lower.
