The show directly addressed this with blood bending, maybe not as viscerally as I’ve seen online but it definitely did. Like if water benders can build enormous ice walls they’re definitely the most dangerous benders in Avatar. They could absolutely rip a person’s soft tissues off their bones if they tried. It’s just seen as so morally wrong that few benders even think about it. Like how we generally view mutilating a body in our societies or other strong taboos.
Which makes no sense considering there’s a war going on. The fire nation goes around burning ppl alive. The last thing I would care about is the moral high road when my opponent genocided a bunch of monks.

Earth benders can do the same with the iron in blood
Air benders can blow up your lungs
Firebenders can remove the heat from your body or boil your blood
