Is a rapist not just as "insane" as a paedophile? Is anyone who watches rape-porn insane?
Not really, unless the rapist has dellusional thoughts. The problem is that you're only thinking of the act itself, and not the motivation behind said act.
For example two people can shoot someone. One of them shot his father because he wanted to inherit his money. The other shot an old lady on the street because a voice in his head told him she was the antichrist. Which one of them is the crazy one? I think it's obvious.
The person watching rape-porn isn't really insane, unless they cannot distinguish reality from fiction.

And that is the crux of the argument pretty much, this alone disagrees with and disproves your whole argument because the fact is the vast majority of people who would ever view such material (I would like to say all but there really are some properly disturbed people out there) are perfectly capable of distinguishing manga/anime/cartoons/games from reality, no matter what they depict. Your entire point is that this isn't the case and that ultimately they are mentally fucked up.

I'm talking about lolicon, not about manga in general.

The argument is the same though, and in this context it is about 'lolicon' in manga i.e. drawings and fictional depictions that many people may or may not agree with but that isn't the point... the point is your own argument of "unless they cannot distinguish reality from fiction" ultimately ends all debate, or atleast should, as all but the most mentally incapable would not be able to see it as anything but a drawing.
