Remarriage after death of a spouse is not a sin.
Remarriage after the previous marriage is determined to be Null is not a sin, though technically that would not be a “re”marriage.
Remarriage absent “marital relations” is not a sin.

I believe that the remarriage, even absent relations, would have to be remedied by getting a civil divorce and to not hold yourselves out in public as husband and wife. True, adultery is no longer taking place, but the public lie on a major matter, combined with disregard for the churches rules for attempting to contract a marriage outside of the Church is a sin in and of itself. That is one reason why the Church does not allow paper marriages to help someone stay in the country, for instance.
