Distribution of fictitious CSAM does create harm, despite not directly involving real children.

How is it different than the company making fake rhino horns to flood the market to fill the demand and reduce harm to real rhinos?

I don't know enough about how the market for rhino horns works to say. If putting fake rhino horns on the market encourages a more thriving market for rhino horns that then places a premium on real rhino horns, it can indeed be harmful to supply fake rhino horns: the practice will then have a foreseeable net effect of killing more rhinos.
