In club leagues, they need to fine the players.

In internationals and other competitions with a group structure, they need to be suspended. The goal is a suspension isn’t really to punish the player’s team, it’s to discourage the action. I disagree that it’s a meaningful disadvantage to the “offended” team. It isn’t like making the team play with 10 players. The potential disadvantage is, in theory, far outweighed by the discouragement it provides the diving squad.
