Like in the title, for example, an animation that moves you , but you can still collide to walls so you dont go trough them or so you dont go back to your original position when the animation ends. I have no idea

Use physics objects like VectorForce or AlightPosition or use the classic and my personal favorite :ApplyImpulse fit for one time needs.

What if i want the root part to move with the torso to achieve this?

Apply the force on the root part since it is the primary part so the whole assembly will move along with it (torso, arms, legs etc)

You can simple use the CFrame property of the player humanoid root part if you want to move the character.

so the characters position can change at the final frame, and the character can collide

just do

local Force = 100
HRP:ApplyImpulse(HRP.CFrame.LookVector * HRP.AssemblyMass * Force)

i want to achieve an execution, but that has a lot of movement, and the character doesnt go trough walls

Just applies a force at the center of mass of a base part to propel it in the direction of a Vector3 and with the strength of the magnitude of the Vector3. When it’s applied in the PrimaryPart of a model the whole model will move along with the base part.
