That's a great question. For me, it's the same meaning. It depends on the country or the area from the person who speaks is. In Colombia I've heard rehogar and sofreir... and pochar in Spain.

They've similar meanings but with little differencies.
Pochar means boil in a low temperature little oil very slow. It uses when you want for example, onions become soft. Normally we say with onions and garlic.
Rehogar means cook in little oil but temperature is medium (not more than 100°C)
Sofreir is similar to "rehogar" but less temperature.
Cooks uses in different receipts but daily you can use as sinonism.
