Is it safe to use a nonstick pan after you have burned something in it and scrubbed the heck out of it?

I burnt some vegetables I was broth-sauteeing in a nonstick pan by getting distracted. I was using no fat to cook with. The whole mess cooked into the pan. The pan has black crud stuck to the bottom.
It has been soaked overnight, water boiled in it, scrubbed as hard as I can with a sponge, soaked and boiled water in it again. There is still some stubborn burnt-on black residue.
Question is NOT how to get if off.
QUESTION IS whether it's safe to use. I don't want to buy a new one if I can help it. Like: Is this one of those things that you're supposed to throw away but actually everyone uses a pan after they've burnt it and it's probably fine?
But if it's really toxic I will throw it away.
