I deleted a public image. Why can some people still see it?

Deleting a public file turns its link off: new requests answer 404. But images are cached as immutable for a year, so browsers (and some caches) that already loaded it may keep showing their own copy. Files on the files host may be cached for up to 60 seconds.

That's outside our reach. If the content is sensitive, also contact the sites where you used the link.
