Is it dangerous to soak my phone into 99.9% isopropyl alcohol with the battery?

Question

Some water squeezed itself into the screen of my Blackbery Passport.

Well uhm... Yes I dropped it in the water in the sink :P 

I was quick to react and take it off, take its pieces apart as much as I can. I managed to separate all pieces including the main board and carefully dried. (I realised that red liquid damage indicator was spillt as well.) However, battery is glued on the main frame. 

After waiting for it to dry I assembled the phone and it is working. However, there is still water in the screen which makes the screen go crazy because it thinks someone is touching it occasionally. 

So the phone is still working, I even made a phone call and used mobile and wifi internet. All perfect. No damage to the battery as well because it is not draining battery. 

So I am doing this for the screen but it is not possible to separate the screen from the frame without getting the battery out and battery is really well glued to the frame and I am afraid of damaging it while removing. 

So the question is: 
What are my changes with the 99% isopropyl alcohol. Can I soak the whole phone with the battery? 

Thanks in advance :D

Answer

Do not soak the battery in anything for any reason. Take it to a repairman and see if there is any way to fix it. 

I'm guessing: If you have a vacuum bagger, like a Food Saver or something, you could try packing your phone in vacuum to see if the water can be sucked out. But in most cases, wet electronics never work right again.
