The constitution explicitly grants authority to regulate IP. There's absolutely no path to a constitutional issue, and constitutional issues are the only way you get laws overturned. "Other legal doctrine" means something like violations of due process somewhere in the chain, which is a constitutional issue, or direct conflict with another law.

The only possible judicial remedy is the premise that it's fair use, which there's a lot of precedent that it isn't.
