Match Report
Tijjani Reijnders was also on target for the Rossoneri, who ended the Nerazzurri's hopes of completing the treble this season, while setting up a meeting with either Bologna or Empoli in next month's showpiece.
Serie A leaders Inter, who are also due to face Bayern Munich in the Champions League semi-finals next week, created the better chances during the first half.
Federico Dimarco rattled the crossbar, while Mehdi Taremi cushioned Nicolo Barella's cross into the path of Lautaro Martinez, who fired over from close range.
However, it was Sergio Conceicao's side who broke the deadlock in the 36th minute, with Jovic burying a header past Josep Martinez from Alex Jimenez's cross.
The Serbian doubled his and the Rossoneri's tally within four minutes of the restart, providing an instinctive finish after Theo Hernandez's deep corner fell kindly to him.
Inter sought a response midway through the half, and Mike Maignan came to Milan's rescue with a wonderful save to deny Stefan de Vrij's pinpoint header.
Yet, the Rossoneri wrapped up the tie five minutes from time with Rafael Leao feeding Reijnders, who coolly slotted past Josep Martinez.

Data Debrief: Rossoneri resume Milan derby resurgence
Milan sealed their spot in a first Coppa Italia final since 2018, and now look to lift the trophy for only the third time in the last 50 years (first since 2003).
Jovic became the first Rossoneri to score multiple goals in a Derby della Madonnina since Rafael Leao did so in a 3-2 victory in September 2022.
Following a run of six straight defeats, Milan are now unbeaten in each of their last five meetings with Inter across all competitions.
As for the Nerazzurri, whose treble hopes are over for another season at least, they have suffered successive defeats for the first time since March/April 2023.
