Or you could just break the torch and run. Or you could break it piece by piece, starting from the outside. There are a lot of ways you could do it.
1. Place dirt blocks around the diamond ore - I'll explain why in a bit.
2. Dig path underground to diamond ore.
3. Dig up diamond ore from underneath, not directly underneath the ore, but one block over so that you're standing under dirt. This prevents sand from falling on you.
4. The dirt blocks you placed will ensure that the diamonds fall down to the tunnel you dug and not on the ground above.
5. ????
6. PROFIT!
