If it did not flatten at the accident or very shortly after then it was not caused by the wreck.

It could have been caused by the accident, the lip of the tire that meets the rim may have been disturbed and has in turn leaked air. But it will be much less of a hassle to fix it yourself rather than have the insurance adjuster come out.
