Answer

2

Explanation

censored will replace censured because -
censored (Verb): to examine books, films, etc. to remove anything that is considered offensive, morally harmful, politically dangerous, etc. and censored (Verb): to criticize someone officially for something he has done wrong
Look at the examples given below:
He was officially censured for his handling of the situation.
The information given to the press was carefully censored by the Ministry of Defence. Hence, had to be censored is the right usage.
