The real problem apart from it not working - your phone would probably have dried out in a non-rice environment – is rice comes with dust — rice dust which sets like concrete once it gets wet so if this rice dust gets into the crevices of your iPhone where it's wet you're going to be left with this concrete material and for example your charger won't plug in or your volume buttons are sticky.

Still also not how this works.

The phone will lower the wattage that it’s allowing „inside“ the battery. Either the charger does it or the phone will not charge anymore

So phone charges at 18w in the beginning wants to drop it down to 9w when almost full (80%). The charger either says „sure I can do that“ and provides the 9w or the charger doesn’t answer and the phone stops charging.

MFI is basically a seal of approval that it will 100% work as intended

I have used isopropyl alcohol to remedy this issue. The reason why I dislike rice is because sure it dries up everything but not fast enough. It could corrode the board. Isopropyl alcohol dries faster and should prevent water from corroding the board in any way. Though I may be wrong but it has worked for me perfectly when I dropped water all over my MacBook pro
