Honda has offered the telemetry of Marquez bike to Dorna/FIM.

It shows that the front brake lever recieved an impact that caused the front tire to freeze, loose traction and cause the fall. They say that it was a consecuence of Rossi's kick that hit the lever.

This makes sense(as I actually said in a post above, in that position side by side mid turn, the handlebar of the exterior rider is exposed to the inside rider and any touch to the handle bar is an easy wipe), though I don't think Rossi was aiming at the lever, don't think that would be easy to do. I think he kicked the arear of the handle bar to unsettle Marquez 'sbike and hope for the best, and was "lucky" that he hit the perfect spot.
