From the available description, these seem to be less serious than the majority of sexual harassment allegations, and in any case there are many ways to do meaningful work for animals without expressing interest in people over Facebook messenger (or whatever else might be the context here).
Obviously, a lot is being withheld, probably for legal and confidentiality reasons, by CEA. As I mention in my first comment, the wider information suggests that the allegations are serious. Could you clarify the second part of your comment please.
Regardless, even if you think the allegations are minor, “you do great work otherwise” is an extremely ill-judged response, I’m afraid.

Ted Kaczynski, a convicted terrorist, has written substantive essays on anarchist theory while in prison. If he can do that, then anyone can find a way to help animals and EA in such a vastly different case as this.
So your response to sexual harassment allegations is to say “please carry on doing good work minus the harassment”? Can you see why that might be the wrong response? By analogy, if Mr Kaczynski published a letter apologising for being a terrorist, would your first response be “please keep doing good work for our community, without being a terrorist”?
No, it’s my response to someone apologizing after they got punished for sexual harassment allegations.
is to say “please carry on doing good work minus the harassment”?
No, I said “whatever manner best grows and strengthens the movement.” I don’t know the answer to that and you don’t either.
By analogy, if Mr Kaczynski published a letter apologising for being a terrorist, would your first response be “please keep doing good work for our community, without being a terrorist”?
If he published it now, in prison, after his conviction? Of course I would. (If I was an anarchist.)
This strikes me as a very weird thing to say in the light of sexual harassment allegations as serious as these appear to be.
