Ocon wasn't involved in this crash, he collided with his teammate in another part of the track. Magnussen touched the wall and consequently hit Perez' car.
As others have stated, the teams have to pay for their own damage. This is a bit controversial to some, but these are the current rules. It wouldn't be a big deal for the bigger teams money-wise, the main problem is that this counts towards the budget cap.
Surprised Ocon didn't get a 10 seconds time penalty anyway.
He did which was then converted to a 5 place grid penalty for the next race as he retired before serving the penalty
