I find it very rare for the LSIs to trigger with liquid spills. If the laptop was working prior to the spill & it is not now, then it stands to reason the liquid made it inside & damaged something. The crackling sound may have been some arcing from a short circuit caused by the liquid spill. Unfortunately once the water evaporates it does not leave any residue trails unlike other liquids. With most liquid spills corrosion will develop wherever the liquid encountered a powered circuit....it could be a spot of corrosion as small as a dot/period "." if it occurs at the right place. Plus many chips on the Apple Logic Boards have solder joints hidden beneath the chip so you will never see any damage there. Even someone with years of experience looking for corrosion can miss it at times (personal experience ;-) ).
