Can you be sent to jail/prison for using someone else's copyrighted fanart as a profile picture?

So I have recently found out that most of my profile pictures on different social media platforms are copyrighted images. I found most of them from Google, I thought Google automatically blocked me from using copyrighted images but I guess I was wrong and now I realise that pretty much all my profile pictures across tons of social media platforms are copyrighted. I've made sure to take the images off now but im still concerned as I have the images on my profile pictures for over 2 years. Can I go to prison for this?

Please help.

(I made a post about this in another subbreddit but I thought it might be a good idea to ask here aswell)
