    I would say commit is the most common collocation with fallacy. There are online tools that enable you to search for collocations - you can find them by googling for English language corpora.

  • "Perpetrate a logical fallacy" puts the fallacy on a similar level to a crime, but has a mock-pompous ring to it, so might provide a touch of humour.

    The best thing is to recast. However, I suppose someone could succumb to a fallacy or fall into a fallacy. Take a look at all these natural uses of "fallacy" -- none of them have your basic structure: https://www.linguee.com/english-spanish/search?source=auto&query=logical+fallacy
