In this paper we study the semileptonic decay $B\to\pi l \nu$ and in particular the factorizable contribution to symmetry breaking corrections to the form factors at large recoil. This contribution is a convolution of the coefficient function, which can be calculated in perturbation theory, and of the nonperturbative light-cone distribution amplitudes of the mesons. The coefficient function, in turn, can also be represented as convolution of the hard Wilson coefficient and of the jet function. Loop corrections to the hard Wilson coefficient and jet function are calculated. We use the method of expanding by regions to calculate these corrections. The results obtained coincide with the ones calculated in the framework of the soft-collinear effective theory (SCET). Factorization of soft and collinear singularities into the light-cone distribution amplitudes is demonstrated at one-loop level explicitly. It is also demonstrated that the contribution of the so-called soft-messenger modes vanishes; this fact is of critical importance to the factorization approach to this decay.
