The creature is destroyed if it does not attack because it simply can’t do so legally.

You can use this effect on a creature you know won’t be able to attack. For example, you can use it on a tapped creature.

10/4/2004·wotc

If the Imp leaves the battlefield before the end of the turn, the creature still is destroyed.
