We can simulate it.

Giving mechanical properties to the silicon insert could be a simple way which takes the physical properties of silicon into consideration.

Otherwise, 2K (MCM) should be more comprehensive which considers shrinkage and other chemical reactions happen to silicon component. (critical inputs for 1st shot required)
It would better capture the interaction between silicon and PA part and finally yield warpage results through a more precise way.
