A little after the fact, however..
I've never heard "touche" used to mean just bitchy,
or cruel. I think the reason it was adopted to english is because we don't have another word for it.
I've only seen it used as a wry acknowledgment.
As when someone uses your own argument against you in a debate, to grudgingly, or somewhat admiringly acknowledge the point they've made you'd say "Touche"
