Passed. You could also say, "She passed away thirty years ago."

I can't think of a logical explanation for "She's been passed away...". Technically, it would be the passive voice of "Someone has passed her away...", which doesn't make sense to me at all in this context.

She's been passed away for 30 years. No
or
She's been past away for 30 years. No


To my ear, 'pass away' sounds like an event and not an on-going state.

These sound OK to me.
She passed away
