I accidentally poke sim ejector tool in the secondary microphone of my Samsung Galaxy S8, now I'm worried of microphone not working and water resistance getting off. Can someone please help me?
Is this a good question?

Microphone will work fine as poking the hole can’t damage it, the water resistant foam is not directly behind the hole so that can’t get punctured unless the sim ejection tool got bent.
I have marked the rubber water resistant gasket with a red square for the secondary microphone as shown here:

Is it possible to replace that rubber gaskit under Warranty or for some amount as I purchase my device 12 days ago and I want it flawless and how much time it would take it to repair?
And is there anyway to check water resistance without sinking the phone underwater?
Take a look at this post from XDA Developer's as it explains how to check for water resistance through an app:
How the top microphone of samsung s8 got placed in it,is it straight below the hole or not
Not, there is a water resistant mesh but the good thing is that it's impossible to puncture that mesh unless it's intentionally done with a 90 degree angled curved pin
