I am currently sharing video content through Plex to multiple remote users by just having my Plex server index the content that is stored in my CloudDrive hosted on Google Drive. I have gigabit fiber with no caps though and unlimited space on my Google Drive, so It's easier for me to host Plex for remote access that way. I found that I need to jack up to prefetch settings quite a bit to get acceptable performance. (Trigger:1, Forward: 40, Window: 3600), but after making that change I have no problem streaming from my CloudDrive. I have the bandwidth to support that though.
If you are bandwidth constrained, then you can try using Plex Cloud Sync (needs Plex Pass). Then you can store your content in your CloudDrive, and then sync it to Cloud Sync (this means two copies of all your content in the cloud). When your remote user streams from Cloud Sync, they are streaming directly from your cloud provider (Google Drive, ACD) bypassing your Plex server and it's limited bandwidth entirely. You still need to use your upload bandwidth to sync the content up to Cloud Sync and your CloudDrive initially, but once it's there, it's there and all streams will come from the cloud.
Some people also use SeedBoxes (a 3rd-party hosted VPS) to host Plex along with their torrents, but you would need a Windows-based host to make that work with CloudDrive. Check out r/seedboxes on Reddit for more info.
