I always wondered why hardlinks in radarr/ sonarr and qbittorrent didn’t work for me. I think the problem was that I mapped the directories as below:

    volumes:
      - ./config:/config
      - ./downloads:/downloads
      - ./movies:/movies

whereas I should’ve mapped them as:

    volumes:
      - ./config:/config
      - ./media:/media 
      - ./media/downloads:/media/downloads
      - ./media/movies:/media/movies

Now, how do I replace all the duplicate files in /downloads with the links?

    I don’t think that particular setup has any issue but have you confirmed if it is enabled and they were copies and not hard links? Doing ls -l will show hard link count. Also all of those directories are in home folder right? I don’t think you can keep them in different partitions but don’t quote me on that.
