The DNA test she took was useless. It seems that her DNA was never compared to DNA from Native Americans; instead, her DNA was compared to indigenous people in Mexico, Columbia and Peru.
“Geneticists, however, have historically had a
fraught relationship with American Indian tribes, and few members in North America have given samples for these databases. Instead, Bustamante compared Warren’s DNA with that of indigenous peoples in Mexico, Colombia, and Peru. Critics of Warren have already seized on this to question the validity of her DNA test—ironically, mirroring
some of the skepticism of those who have been criticizing Republicans’ insistence that Warren get a DNA test all along.”
What Does Elizabeth Warren's DNA Test Prove? - The Atlantic
“Democrat Senator
Elizabeth Warren has
released a DNA test that supposedly shows “strong evidence’’ she had a Native American in her family tree dating back 6 to 10 generations. The move coincided with a slick campaign ad that uses the information.
“However, many of the leftist media stories running the ‘release’ seem to bury an important fact. The ‘expert’ DNA specialist could only use “samples from Mexico, Peru, and Colombia to stand in for Native American” for the comparison.”

Even if the analysis is accepted as a valid comparison to Native American DNA, it is still possible that Warren has less of this DNA than the average European-American.
“All depends on the great-great-great-great-grandmother of Warren. If that matriarch was a Native American, then
the senator is 1/64th American Indian. (The Globe mistakenly has it as 1/32.) But her Native American ancestor could just as likely go back 10 generations, the analysis reports, meaning Warren would be just 1/1024th American Indian.
“What do those fractions actually mean? Well, geneticists
estimate that the average European-American has genes that are 98.6 percent European, .19 percent African, and .18 Native American. By comparison, Warren’s genes might be just 0.09 percent Native American. On average, if you have a European background, she's probably less Native American than you or I."

One more thing, Warren claimed she never made her purported American Indian heritage an issue. She Lied.
.“She regularly bragged about her heritage and listed herself as a minority in the Association of American Law School’s directory while a Harvard Law School professor and even
contributing a recipe to a Native American cookbook called
Pow Wow Chow. Harvard's law school bragged about her as a Native American hire.”
