Scrumhalf Sebastien Rouet was handed the longest ban of 43 weeks for physical and verbal abuse of the match official, the independent judicial committee appointed by Rugby Europe said in a statement http://www.rugbyeurope.eu/decision-rugby-europe-judicial-committee.
Fellow scrumhalf Guillaume Rouet was banned for 36 weeks for the same charges. Flankers Pierre Barthere and Lucas Guillaume, as well as flyhalf Mathieu Belie, all received 14-week bans for using threatening actions and words at a match official.
A misconduct complaint against the Spanish Rugby Union will be heard at a later date, the statement added.
World Rugby said earlier this month that it would convene an independent disputes panel to review the match.
Spain must now beat Portugal to earn a two-legged playoff against Samoa for a place at the World Cup.
