Themes cannot be uploaded to a WordPress.com site. If you have a self-installed WordPress.org site you can install any theme from anywhere. There is a vast selection of Free and Premium themes available for use on WordPress.com at http://wordpress.com/themes.
Since you have purchased a theme, you have two options. One, go back to where you purchased the theme and request a return because you are using WordPress.com. Two, purchase hosting and setup a self-hosted WordPress.org site and use the theme there.
For more on the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org please see this article: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

Thanks a lot ariwinokur.
I also tryed already to install wordpress, from wordpress.org for that I can start.
When I download it, I made the required steps. It gave me a webpage with the code and did not start installation.
So I have the following question, in case you can help me:
I work with a laptop windows last edition and with google crhome.
Do I need to install any other software before?
Does my host and my domain be already working?
Is it better if I buy a domain and the host trought wordpress?
I would like to make it easy and friendly, of course, not expensive.

Re your install
The site you are asking about does not seem to be hosted on WordPress.COM so you need to make friends over at WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using.
This site is for support of sites hosted on WordPress.COM. You should address your questions to WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using: http://wordpress.org/support/
The forum at WordPress.ORG is not connected to WordPress.COM so you will need to open an account at .ORG if you do not already have one. You may use the same email at WordPress.ORG as you do at WordPress.COM.

As ariwinokur already told you, themes cannot be uploaded to a WordPress.com site.

Hi,
If I can not work with it because I bought it before at Envato an now I can not upload it. The only possible way is to buy a theme from those that are available at the wordpress backoffice.
Am I wrong? Is there a better solution?
Best,

Again (2), as auxclass already told you:

The site you are asking about does not seem to be hosted on WordPress.COM so you need to make friends over at WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using.
This forum is only for blogs/sites hosted by WordPress.com
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and different http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/And you should ask in the WordPress.org forum.
