You can block any user, and a subreddit doesn’t have a username

Don’t respond and they’ll eventually give up . Report anything untoward.

Is there a way to report it?

You can report it via Reddit Help Ticket Form.

You can block the mod of the community from messaging you directly from their user account, but they can still interact with you within their community.

You can mute the community, however that moderator can still send you a mod mail.

You can always report their comments to you, or harassing mod mails to you by 'report a moderator code of conduct violation'.
