How to let EA know about someone using TS4 assets illegally?

I have no idea if I am approaching this correctly or if this is where I can even make a statement about this issue, but the way the ticket submission works is really backwards and confusing.

Anyways, hi, Adagio here, simmer for 21 years. Recently I've been getting harassed on Twitter by a very popular personality and it has come to my attention that she is showcasing a game she funded with $15,000 is using assets from The Sims 4. In a little clip of the game I noticed the toilet from Tiny Living and that the dining room chairs were from Backyard Stuff. Other assets I noticed were spliced and separated, such as a dust pan and broom from Laundry Day Stuff, or she has repainted the mesh of an asset and stretched it out (such as the dining room table being an end table from Island Living, but it's stretched wide and repainted). 

NOT SELF PROMOTING but I made a side-by-side comparison of her "from-scratch assets" next to what she actually stole from The Sims 4 and put it in a thread on X (Twitter), and I tagged EA, EAHelp and The Sims in my thread, but wasn't sure if there was somewhere else I could get this flagged by EA? This person is a long-time scammer, she constantly tricks people with "emergency" gofundme's then goes on vacation with the money, and now she's doing a similar thing claiming this game cost her $15k when it's just an asset flip straight from The Sims 4 while asking for people to fund her "indie dev studio".
