I had a similar thing happen to my old frame. The initial accident didn't do the frame in and i still rode it for ~6 months, but the bending opened up the lug joints and water got in. The head tube/down tube lug eventually disintegrated and the rest of the frame was totaled when it went.

Make sure to inspect that area frequently as it will be more susceptible now.
