Dutch refree Bjorn Kuipers took no action at the time but had the option of asking UEFA to review the incident in his match report.
It would appear Kuipers did not highlight the incident as a UEFA spokesmen told the Associated press, "disciplinary unit has decided not to open a case."
Suarez scored twice as Liverpool won 3-1 on the night but went out on the away goals rule.
