Comment (by mcs):

 See #23064 for a similar bug report. Maybe getting a good stack trace will
 help.

 Mozilla has some general lldb debugging instructions here:
 ​https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
 US/docs/Mozilla/Debugging/Debugging_Mozilla_with_lldb

 But you could begin by just starting Tor Browser's firefox process under
 lldb and see what is shown when it crashes. For example:

 cd ~/Desktop/TorBrowser.app
 lldb ./Contents/MacOS/firefox
 run

 After the crash occurs, useful commands include `bt` (show backtrace for
 the current thread) or `bt all` (all threads).
