Neither.

There is no solid historical evidence that she even existed, let alone when she might have died. 

There is no harm in commemorating the story about her as a customary matter or as something which may have occurred, or out of hope that there might be some blessings attached to it.

However if one is asking about bare facts and historical reliability, this is the answer.

No, it was not shifted. Ruqayyah Bit Al-Husain (AS) passed away in the same place where her grave is now. Yazeed put the captives from Ahlul Bayt (AS) when they reached to Shaam in a ruined ground not too far from his palace in Damascus. Ruqayyah was crying for her father Imam Husain (AS). Yazeed sent to her the head of her father covered in a tray. She got deadly shock when she saw the head of her father and passed away. She was buried in the same place.

Wassalam.
