Police found Davidenas' body in April northeast of Carseland, Alta.
It's believed she was killed after she went missing in February.
Police allege Davidenas was lured by Zwick and Rushton to a home in the 5600 block of Rundlehorn Drive N.E.
Davidenas knew both men and was in a previous relationship with Zwick, officials said.
Investigators believe she was targeted because of her history as a sex worker.
According to Alberta Justice, both men have lengthy criminal histories.
Anyone with information on Davidenas' death is asked to call Calgary police at 403-266-1234.
Tips can also be submitted anonymously through Crime Stoppers.
