Message water/meth through a hotwire sensor.

The possibility of water possibly running back in the induction system down to the blowthrough sensors was a consideration in the design of this system. The placement of the sensor and where its sensing element is located within the tube prevents this from becoming a problem. It would require a very large quantity of water/meth to be dumped into the tubing before the liquid level reached the sensor's element and by that point, you would have much bigger problems; i.e. you're going to hydrolock the engine. It could actually be argued that in such an event, drowning the sensors would prevent you from hydrolocking the engine because the engine simply wouldn't start given the fuel mixture would be so far off with the sensors reporting erroneous airmass data.
