On a purely rational level it makes sense for the airline to move the guy in that scenario. If that lady writes a complaint going: "A pervert stared at my breasts as I was breast-feeding on my flight and Emirates ignored it even though I complained!", true or false, the possible impact is gonna be a lot higher than some dude going "I got relocated against my wishes".
What the FA should have done is observed the situation discreetly.

And when it came to light what had happened the husband should have been relocated to the worst seat on the plane.
