What will replacing the whole "Display Assembly" do?

So recently I dropped my dear Moto X, that I've only had for almost a month, in the toilet... :( (This phone is so slippery with out a case on. It is kind of ridiculous). So after being hopeful that the water repellent stuff on the in sides prevailed and putting it in rice for 48 hours, I plugged it into a charger. It would no turn on and that's why. I am assuming it died while I was asleep as when I woke up and went to the restroom is when I dropped it.

So magically! It worked! Charging port seems to be working fine along with the battery. 2 hours past. Not completely charged but I took it off to examine. Held power button. Turned on fine. No discoloration in the pixels, no dead pixels. But after it turned on. The big thing is that non of the touchscreen it's self works! At all. No even a certain section of the screen or anything of that sort. So knowing it's accessories as a phone I preceded to test if everything else got out of the accident unscathed. Using "Okay Google", another smart phone, and a Roku box, I have come to find that every single other thing inside the phone works! All the microphones, the speaker, Rear facing camera, front facing camera, NFC (In and out), Whole antenna assembly (Wifi, 4g, 3g, calling, texting), Volume rocker, Power button (though is bugging out and keeps pressing/activating by its self. Will need to be replaced), Flashlight (can't actually be sure yet), Vibration thingy. Yeah. Everything. So this question is. If it is just the display not working, what can I do? Will buying a new display assembly and having a pro instal it work? Or what are my options? I know I cannot "repair" the existing display as liquid damage is non repair able sooooooo? Please anyone. Give a noob you knowledge! Thanks!
