Nice of them to say that she confronted them on the set of an "unidentified television show",
in an article in which they only (and prominently) name one other television show she's appeared on. I mean, what a coincidence it would be if those two things were connected.

does "sexual predator" mean rapist, or just that you'd like to fuck schwarzenegger?

It means
you try to chat up people who don't fancy you and then when that doesn't work you try to chat up someone else who also doesn't fancy you.
After all, trying to chat up people who fancy you doesn't get you into trouble.

Savile and all the Yew Tree lads were famously convicted for some ill-judged and unwelcome flirting

Savile
was never convicted while he was alive. I suspect if he were, though, it would more likely to have been for the paedophilia and rape etc, not the flirting.
Sure, he was a sexual predator, but that in itself isn't illegal. Just go to pretty much any nightclub on a Saturday night, and you'll see lots of quite legal sexual predation (and maybe some illegal sexual predation).
Bill Cosby was a sexual predator too, but it was the drugging and raping of many women over the course of decades that he was convicted of, not being a sexual predator.
Being a sexual predator just makes you a sleazebag, not a criminal. I reckon it's that distinction that is stopping them naming the guy, because he could quite easily sue them if he hasn't done anything illegal.

This guy makes some heavy handed hints: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RK_zDMZF_Q Around the 56:05 mark. It’s hardly a smoking gun, and very obviously full of sour grapes, but clearly he’s trying to get at something .
That pic up there was taken from a show he did with her and left: www.comedy.co.uk/tv/news/3139/roast_battle_series_2/ Given that he didn’t appear to have a lot else on at the time and the bitchy format seemed right up his street, it’s at least slightly odd that he left.

I assume it's the other obvious one.
Brand doesn't seem particularly litigious, and there's been a couple of small stories about the other one of late.

Go on Reddit.
They have lawyers.
There's two common guesses. One is Russell Brand, who I really don't think it is. The other, I saw people I trust make comments about when a related story came out the other week.

...Actually...
I might just be mad, but I seem to recall a Roast Battle with Ryan, Bobby Kootstra, Russel Brand, and possibly also Jimmy Carr, and there being a recurring sexual predator joke/callback.
I can't find the episode for free, and so ends my important internet research.
