It seems I'm in the minority here, but assuming the victim is truthful, this is what I think is the most likely scenario:
1) Dispenza is the sicko and abuser. He was grooming the victim and bribing her with pizza when he asked her to request the obscene photo.
2) Cipres got a DM from someone requesting a d*** pic. He probably had no idea who the person sending the request was. Scrolling on his phone, he looked at the sender's photo and saw what appeared to be an attractive woman. Bear in mind that 13-yr-olds can appear quite mature with makeup and instagram filters and can easily look much older than their real age. He probably didn't think anything of it and sent the photo. Was that stupid? Yes, very. Was it child abuse? Inadvertently, yes. Was it a crime and a sign of pedophilia? In my opinion, no. It was a sign of recklessness.
3) Somehow JZ and SF found out about the photo and were horrified. Cipres explained the mistake as above. JZ and SF implored the victim's family not to press charges considering it was all a terrible mistake. The wording in Brennan's article is ambiguous and it is unclear whom she is quoting here: she was a “pretty girl and men have their needs.” I highly doubt that JZ or SF actually wrote or said that. It sounds like someone paraphrasing and Brennan quoting that person.
