So if I rent everything, I can live my exact same lifestyle but be called a minimalist?

  Minimalist is just a self-identified label, so you're welcome to call yourself a minimalist if you feel that it fits. You don't have to look for some technical workaround to some exact definition here, and pedantically arguing about descriptive terms can get tiring real quick. Maybe you're not trying to be pedantic and are coming from a place of curiosity, and I do apologize for my tone if that's the case. It is coming off as sounding a little "debate-bro" though.

  And, really, don't we all rent everything?

    Most people buy everything, even their homes, using rented money!

  You don't own it - its furniture, comes with the house - it's the lifestyle itself. While you technically seem correct on it, you're missing the point.
