Dried up water will still cause corrosion. 99% Isopropyl alcohol will disperse the water and stop/ reverse corrosion before evaporating away. Rice is okay for drying external areas , but if water got on the board it won’t stop long term corrosion. Rice also won’t help water trapped under the board shielding, where as IPA will.
If it was on when it fell in water then went off on it’s own..something shorted out, not a good sign! I’d take it to a repair shop who should test and clean everything up for you tbh. Depends if there’s important photos or data on there or not whether you decide to attempt your own repair.

DO NOT charge or turn on before it’s cleaned up/ dried out whatever it could cause more internal damage!
