You need to go to https://support.upwork.com/hc/en-us and open a ticket (or better yet, speak to an AGENT) for that because that definitely looks like a BUG - a serious system bug. Offers are suppose to 'expire' after a certain amount of time if you do nothing with them. The fact that it's just been sitting there for almost a year and can't be removed means the Upwork system has a great big ol' bug in it and has gotten jammed up. I think one of their programmers would have to go into the system and forcefully remove it. I don't think you'll be able to fix this issue on your own.
After you go to https://support.upwork.com/hc/en-us, click 'I'm a Freelancer', then 'Get Support' at the bottom, when the window opens, just keep typing 'speak to a representative' in the chat box so you can get to a live person and get around that silly 'bot' (You're Top Rated, so one of the PERKS of that is that you get to speak to a LIVE person and explain the issue instead of just creating a 'ticket' that gets left in some waste basket.) Good luck.

Here are some clearer instructions on how to get to the LIVE support on https://support.upwork.com/hc/en-us
After you're in 'Get Support':
immediately type "speak to a representative"
Select: "Yes, I need additional support"
(a bunch of chat bot messages scroll by)
Select : "Yes, Only a freelancer account"
Options show up: Call us on the phone , Chat with an agent, Creat a ticket
This should prevent you from having to waste 10-20 minutes arguing with a 'bot' that won't understand your problem
