LeBlanc takes significantly more skill to play, rarely does anything unless she snowballs, and evaporates if you're able to focus her. She's was made to be at an extreme end of the spectrum. Oh, and she's significantly countered by simply buying enough magic resist (especially a banshee's veil), whereas Teemo is a natural hybrid who requires both armor and mr to defend against. Teemo doesn't need to be anywhere near a battle to do a good portion of his damage, and even when he does he has (yes, he still does) an amazing escape ability to make it out 90% of the time something goes wrong. When something does go wrong, it'll kill leblanc much quicker than it does teemo. As addressed in this patch preview, (the whole reason they're nerfing him) Teemo also had (and really, still does) a huuuge ability to push towers safely and quickly. LeBlanc can't push towers at all. I consider teemo to be annoying, but not OP, but I find the nerfs fair. For one thing, I've faced too many teams that won simply because of their ability to run away with 30 hp after the teamfights they lost, causing them to win the game even though we'd won a ton more teamfights than they had because we were so much worse off after what few team fights we did lose.
