Blinking Apple logo after water damage to iphone X. Wont update or restore? Fixable? Help!

My phone got wet in my pocket after I got drenched in the rain. Ive already checked the sims area and the red strip is there so its got water damage. The apple logo just goes on and off. Ive tried rebooting and can get to the connect to itunes screen. Ive tried Updating and Restoring but both does not work (not able to update or restore). Is there anything else I can do? Any possible way to fix this? Thank you

iPhone X, iOS 12
