Are you a:
tree?
My body leaves; my core can stay,
A double meaning: The body is leafs/leaves, and when they go away for the winter, the trunk/core remains
Where I shall breathe another way.
With no leaves, a tree can still exchange oxygen and CO2, just in a more dormant state
The route of south I always linger.
Route/root is another double meaning. [Via OP: roots stretch downward, and are harder to move the deeper they go]
My arms have arms; my ring no finger.
The arms are branches, which can have more branches stemming from them. Tree trunks can have rings, but do not have fingers.

Are you a

Because :
A black hole is the core of a former star, whose most of its matter was expulsed through space via a supernova.
Black holes are often surrounded by rings of hot gas. No idea for the arms or the south hints though.
