Does the impurity of the substance (urine) and the impurity of the ruling (alcoholic perfume) disappear from clothes in the washing machine if they are placed in it without washing the impure spot, knowing that the washing machine changes the water more than once?

Urine impurity after it dries—and similarly, the حكمية (legal/constructive) impurity—becomes pure by running water over it, such as placing it in a washing machine and pouring water over it. It is sufficient for water to run over it once after another. As for عين النجاسة (tangible/substantive impurity), it does not become pure except by the removal of the substance of the impurity itself.
