I uh... Million Billion Ant-Man is probably gonna rip Superman in half like a phone book.
Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

Would it? This seems a lot weaker than Jupiter Gorilla. This isn't the Earth's weight in ants, it is all the ants on Earth. Which is a lot of ants but like... Could every ant on the planet pooled into one move the planet? A little cursory googling says there is less than 100 billion pounds of ants on the planets. Even if they can lift 50 times their body weight (a generous estimation only true of certain ants) we are still huge orders of magnitudes below the weight of the planet.
Now, the ant's speed is probably going to be nuts, maybe capable of blitzing Superman, but I am honestly not sure they can hurt him.

Also taking your average red ant, you're looking at a weight of 1 to 5 mg. Lowballing an average at like, 2mg, say; you're looking at 4.40924524 x 10 to the 11th pounds with one million billion ants on the planet. Which is like, uh... 2.2 million tons give or take.
Even using the 50x estimate, you've got a super speed ant capable of hefting around 100 million tons.

Like, it can not be understated how broken modern Superman is. He destroys planets by jumping off of the when he's almost out of power. He shatters chains used to tow stars around. He benches the weight of the Earth for 5 days away from the sun and sweats a single drop. He shoves around space fishies big enough to eat the Earth.
If this was Post Crisis Clark, we'd maybe have a fight on our hands. But Nu and Rebirth are bonkers.

We tend to underestimate weights. It’s worth noting that 100 million tons is orders (plural) of magnitude less than the (estimated) weight of a single mountain.
