Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'Nazi' (someone associated with Nazism) plus 'party' (a political organization) yields the political organization of Nazis. This noun‑noun combination is a straightforward, cross‑linguistically common pattern, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer it refers to the political party associated with Nazism.
Etymology
Nazi Party comes from a short form of the group's long German name. The full name was Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, the 'National Socialist German Workers' Party', and people shortened Nationalsozialist to Nazi, so Nazi Party now means the political party that ruled Germany under Adolf Hitler from 1933 to 1945.
