There are no specific temperatures at which a tornado occurs. They typically occur with temps in the 60s and 70s, but can occur at warmer or much cooler temps. The main aspect is not what the temperature is, but how much instability (availability for rising air) and wind shear (change in wind direction and speed with height in the atmosphere) is present.
