I think that's an understatement; he's been close to Dumbledore for
twelve years, V. obviously knows he's gone and declares he must be
killed.  There are just too many people around who know where he's
been.  Going back to V. means he's dragon kibble in very short order.

And look at it from V's point of view.  He's got to make an example
of somebody so the other DE's get the message.  What better way to do
it than by torturing Snape?

Here's a challenge: what OTHER task is it possible for Snape to
undertake that does NOT include going back to V?
