Britain's Health and Safety Executive said in a statement on Tuesday that the team and Spanish driver's family had been informed.
De Villota lost her right eye and suffered a fractured skull when her car ran into the back of a team truck at the Duxford airfield in eastern England after a straight-line aerodynamics test.
The Spaniard died of natural causes, probably linked to her injuries, the following year at the age of 33.
An investigation by the team immediately after the accident found there were no car-related issues to blame.
Tail-enders Marussia, who went into administration last year, are still competing in Formula One under the ownership of Manor Grand Prix Racing.
