Morphology
dope + whore
The compound is compositionally interpretable: a speaker who knows 'dope' (drugs / drug addict) and 'whore' (prostitute) can readily infer an insulting label for someone involved in prostitution tied to drugs. It is highly vulgar/offensive, and while slang senses of 'dope' can vary, the basic derogatory meaning is directly derivable from the constituents.
Etymology
Dope whore is an insulting compound that comes from combining dope (a word for 'drugs') and whore (a word for 'a prostitute'), creating the harsh image of someone who sells sex to get drugs. That's why it is used as an offensive 'insult' for a drug addict involved in prostitution.
