It doesn't need to be, but it doesn't need not to be either.
These discussions always seem to lean towards extremes, either it has to be one way or it has to be another. Saying something can't be R-rated is as much of a restriction as making something intended to be R-rated. It's more important to consider the content itself rather than it's hypothetical rating.
R-rated content in the Star Wars universe could work, just like PG-13 or below content can and does work. Not because of the rating, but because of the quality of the content itself.
