The choice wasn't Disney takes the blame vs. Disney blames someone else but rather Disney admits liability versus Disney settles without making any statement regarding liability.
A more normal settlement by Disney would have had them saying, essentially, "without admitting we are liable we have reached a settlement agreement." Now, if anybody can find sufficient grounds for suit, Disney will not be able resist on a claim that they were not liable for the underlying accident (though they can probably find other grounds).
The Torres family is also free to forever say "Disney killed our son" where a more standard settlement would have a confidentiality clause that would generally bind them from further discussion of blame and responsibility.
