I have often stated in my coursework without a second thought that
$$\int_{X} y \, dx = \int_T y \, \frac{dx}{dt}\,dt$$
What is the name of this theorem? Is there any specific way in which one should invoke it during a formal proof?
I believe it is probably the change of variables theorem,
$$\int_{u(a)}^{u(b)} f(u(x))\,d(u(x)) = \int_a^b f(u(x)) \, \frac{d(u(x))}{dx} \, dx$$
but I genuinely do not know.
Yes, is change of variable. The article of wolfram that you cite, is exactly what you're asking for.
