MacBook Air stuck in recovery, now it’s dead?

hi, so a few days ago I spilled a bit of tea on my macbook air (yes I know). it still booted into recovery/startup options for a while, disk utility and reinstall macos worked, the ssd was showing up as verified, but macintosh hd kept failing to boot properly. after multiple reinstall attempts it eventually stopped turning on completely. now it shows absolutely no signs of life. no screen, startup sound or anything even while charging. could it still be recoverable?

I also tried basically every power/button combination I could find online, leaving it plugged in for 24h, different ports etc. I know nothing about macbooks tbh

could it still be recoverable? I’m wondering if I should go to the apple store or if there’s anything else left to try first. I’m a broke international student so I wanted to check any option before paying for anything 💀 thanks in advance!
