I suspect that one will be bought off the insurance company by Boeing and then it will be given to the engineers and everything tested to destruction to get data on fatigue life and crash loads.

Then once of the samples have been taken the rest scrapped. It might be that some parts are contaminated and have to be sent to land fill.
