The police need a bit of confidence here to say, in short, “We are having nothing to do with this issue”. The only fallback is that, if there is an imminent threat of a breach of the peace, they may wish to warn all the parties about their future behaviour. But many of these incidents are transpiring on the internet. The person involved is often many miles away, sometimes in another part of the world. Generally speaking, the risk of a meeting, or of anything else happening, is nil. We need to keep practicality and pragmatism in mind.
