Can we all agree that rape is worse than offending people?

I never said harassment was worse. In the first sentence I agree with OP's statement.

However, the reason most of the assailants are not in jail is not because their crime wasn't worse, it's because they are minors. The 19 year-old assailant got 2,5 years jail-time and no probation. The others got between 0,5 and 2 years on probation, which is arguably worse than 3 days in jail.

So, no the headline is not accurate.

Edit: I just reread your post... you think the victim got jail time over harassing her assailants?! That's what these rage-bait headlines do. It's not about what actually happened. It's about triggering the preconceptions of the consumers and pushing them farther into the extremes.
