You mean condemn, right?
So as it turns out despite being the superstate EUSSR controlling everything about member states and leaving them zero sovereignty the EU don't actually have any competency in this.
While the Treaty of Lisbon makes references to consequences there doesn't appear to be any legal basis - it's an aspiration only.
Internal Spanish matter to be attended to according to their own sovereign laws and constitution. EU can express dismay and nothing else. As with everything else they're law-bound and there are a bunch of processes to follow.
