Does anyone know if I could change my tires and rims on my 2012 Kia Forte sx5 from 215/45/17 to 195/75 /15?

As Acura_Kal mentioned, no can do, because of the size of the brakes.
Bolt pattern and center bore are the same, sure, but the brakes are basically inside the wheel, and the brake will be in the way. Go to 16''. 205/55-16. It's not a lot more costs.

I'm fairly sure 16" wheels are the smallest to can run on an SX. 15" wheels will interfere with the front brakes.
