If it was dunked, you should have pulled the battery out immediately, and because it's been on until the battery drained, chances are now something has shorted out and fried.
For drying out, it needs much more than half a day in rice, try for a week in rice. But could be too late now, and you'll be buying a new phone..that's it. Was it insured?

The battery is not removable. Seems they have gone the same way as other manufacturers. Sometimes progress isn't really progress.
battery cannot be removed in this mobile and not insured
OK, I didn't actually realise that HTC had gone to sealed non-removable batteries.....BOOO!
FWIW, my new phone has a sealed battery as well, Oppo R7 Plus, will have to be extra careful to avoid dunking it.
