Twitch doesn't make any money from streamer tips as most of that is done through a link to PayPal. Twitch has no tip system.

Popular streamers like Lirik have said they much prefer getting a subscription through Twitch than a donation as it's much more reliable. Some streamers like Summit1G probably does make way more money through tips because of their personality some people just throw money at them, but again none of that goes to Twitch.
