  Magnetization dynamics in single-domain ferromagnets can be triggered by
charge current if spin-orbit coupling is sufficiently strong. We apply
functional Keldysh theory to investigate Rashba spin-orbit torques in metallic
two-dimensional ferromagnets. A reactive, anti-damping-like spin-orbit torque
as well as a dissipative, field-like torque are calculated microscopically, to
the leading order in the spin-orbit interaction strength. By calculating the
first vertex correction we show that the intrinsic anti-damping-like torque
vanishes unless the scattering rates are spin-dependent.
