Is there a way to represent an access to a nested function?

You probably need two representations.

1) Often overlooked is UML support for free functions and procedures. The
only place I saw them actually used it the Rational Ada <-> Rational Rose
mapping.

2) You would need a Class of stereotype <<access>> and the procedure as
target type.

But then I don't know any UML tool that handles functions or procedure
pointer natively.

Having said that: You did reveal the real weakness for UML: UML is mostly
about the interfaces and not internals.
