Four years later, Avitia started again at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London .

There she defeated the American Khatuna Lorig 6-2 and thus won the bronze medal. In the team competition, Avitia started for Mexico with Aída Román and Alejandra Valencia , but they were eliminated early due to a defeat in the quarter-finals with 209: 219 against the Japanese Kaori Kawanaka , Ren Hayakawa and Miki Kanie and thus finished fifth.
