I have a multi-site setup with three themes. They look the same, but they are different in colors. What are best practices to setup my theme structure, in themes/custom/site1, site2, and site3, or in sites/site1/themes, sites/site2/themes, and sites/site3/themes?

If they only differ in color, you should provide a theme setting for choosing it and setup the theme in /themes/custom/mymulticolortheme, so it will become available for all sites. Otherwise you have to maintain multiple nearly identical themes, which is a time killer when you have to fix a bug or add a feature.
If you have different themes for each site you should place each theme in the particular site theme folder like /sites/site1/themes/custom/myspecialthemeforsite1, /sites/site2/themes/custom/mytotalydifferentthemeforsite2 etc., so that they are only available for sites they belong to.

yes, if it is specific for the default site, otherwise use the web root folder

IN this case, where the themes differ only in color, you should create a single theme. And try using theme settings of color module to change the color as required.
