It’s not really, though, is it? It’s similar to things like death threats: creating a picture of someone getting killed is not illegal, but using it in a coercitive way very much is. It’s not a completely different thing just because it involves boobs. Harm is not done when the file is created, it’s done when it is spread maliciously to bully someone, and that’s where prosecution should be focused.
The fact that a representation of a thing itself is illegal is quite backwards and ought to be at least seriously debated more seriously than in the moral panic we have now. Otherwise, we’re back to punishing people for their creations, whether that would be ideas, writings, paintings, or digital files, just because some people do not like it.
