If it's running fine and hasn't turned on the check engine light, drive it and be happy. Others have reported that a stock Yaris will run fine on something over 40% ethanol before the ECU starts having problems injecting enough fuel to keep it from going lean. The scary messages often quoted about engine and fuel system damage with >10% ethanol don't apply to modern cars.

Using 93 octane gas to dilute it won't give you a benefit. E85 is 104 pump octane.
