sim cards don't normally break as a result of water damage. I would suspect that your sim is not hurt and the problem is with the phone. Yes, if the sim card fits, it will work. iphone 6 does require a different format sim on some networks though.

It should work if your SIM card fits because SIM cards are usually pretty strong.

Will definitely work. Mine was in snow for a week and still worked on another phone. My phone got into a fight with a snow blower.
