QUESTION
Is there any way for her to remain anonymous, if she only wants the photos removed and doesn’t request legal action against the man who posted it?

More details to this question:
Pornographic images of a 15 year old girl were kept by an ex-boyfriend for 4 years, until she had turned 19. He then posted them on an ex-girlfriend revenge porn website, and the webpage shows up on popular search engines when her name is searched. He denies doing so, however he is the only person who could have done so. Can she take anonymous legal action to have the pictures removed from the site, which has a policy on removal of under aged pictures, provided that a law enforcement email address contacts them? What options does she have to avoid legal action against herself, and avoid further defamation?

Probably not. She needs to sue the jackass. What the hell was a little kid doing taking pornographic pictures?

Probably. She should contact the local DA's office. Regardless of her age now, she was a minor when the photos were taken and that makes what he did illegal.

She needs to report the matter to the police. She is the victim of cyber-staking.
