She could go after the webmaster for looking at her the wrong way or chewing bubblegum in her presense, if she wanted to. The real question is would she be sucessful.
And, frankly, yeah, I reckon it could be argued, assuming she didn't have perview over the way that the content was displayed on the internet, that the way her content was presented gave the assaulter a false sense of what the model wanted or expectation - and that somehow led to her being assaulted (e.g., to give an extreme as an example: 'This gal likes to be smacked around in public clubs - so be sure to smack her if you see her' within the contents of the website).
But that's why any sensible contract would always have a limitation of liability clause somewhere... in just about _any_ business arrangement.
There's too many possibilities to give you a cut-and-dry answer, but I would think that, all things being 'normal', it's be a hard case for her to win.
