AFAIK, "malformed" is usually used in context of biology, like "malformed foetus/limb".
"Ill-formed" is something not fitting into a language/grammar.

🤷‍♂ I've heard malformed being used wrt. syntax as well; a google search does give plenty of results for "malformed syntax". I've also used "malformed" in the context of grammar myself before.
