Nope (unless you include paying lawyers for their advice as a "penalty"
). It's not like court where they assess costs, sometimes even in the case of a negotiated dismissal. A "warning letter" is a pretty specifically-defined administrative action. Even in terms of its statement of violation, it refers to it as an "alleged violation." It's not even reported under PRIA.
Reads like this:
This notice cites an alleged violation(s) of the following Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) sections that occurred at [loaction], on [date]. Cite: 14 CFR §[section]. The determination to issue this notice is based on the facts and circumstances surrounding the alleged violation(s) that were discussed with you by the reporting inspector.
If, within 30 calendar days of the date of this letter, you wish to add additional pertinent information in explanation or mitigation, write to:
[address]
It has been determined that this matter does not warrant legal enforcement action; however, the alleged violation(s) will be made a matter of record. Records concerning individuals will be expunged 2 years after the date of issuance. Your future compliance with the regulations is expected.

Excellent. R&W provided the framework above and this fleshes it out. What we don't know, and can't find out is if there is another alleged violation within the 2 year, if this letter would figure in more stringent enforcement policy. Then they could use it as some kind of evidence of habitual offender. My guess is that it would negatively affect anything that came up within the next two years. So the alleged violator would unfairly be 'paying for' a non-finding.
