Hi, I'm not a native English speaker but I think is "dead" instead of "died" because after you put "has been" you need to add an adjective, in this case is "dead". "Died" is a verb, it cannot be together with the another verb "been"; so after the verb "been" you need to explain how is the subject, for that the adjective works. The adjective is the one that describes the subject.
I hope that helped you.

“...has been dead...” Here the word dead is an adjective for a state of being not the verb so we do not conjugate it.
The sentence is in the present perfect progressive tense, An action is currently occurring that began in the past.
