Why does it matter what their motivation is? If this young lady has been damaged, she's possibly entitled to compensation. Whether she wants money or some sense that she did the "right thing" is immaterial.
The issue here is whether these two did something which entitles the plaintiff to an award of money. Actual damages do enter into things and may even be an element of the tort. In other words, whether there are any "real" damages may or may not be an essential element here.
I haven't seen the pleadings, but it would seem she's suing for invasion of privacy, which often (this varies from place to place) only requires that someone intrude upon the plaintiff's solitude while she has a reasonable expectation of privacy, and in most places that the intrusion is something a reasonable person would find highly offensive. I think she can prove all of that without too much trouble.
I know nothing about Florida law or the law of any particular state. I do know that this lawsuit is probably anything but "frivolous" though.
