General question about reporting players

I guess I just want to know, does it work?

As a lower-end-of-silver support, I generally find I am reporting players at least 1 in 3 matches for various things.

This can range from generally making the game an unpleasant experience for the team (flaming, complaining, playing the blame game etc), to more specific things (foul language directed at specific people, disgusting comments, detailed descriptions of what the player did with my mother last night, sexist crap etc).

I guess I just want to know how likely it is that these incidences in which I take the time to write a detailed report on at the end of the game are actually dealt with accordingly.

I guess as an older female player, I like to do my part in trying to improve the game experience for all players, but when I see day after day rising toxicity, it just makes me feel...meh...
