You could always try the old fashioned "put it in rice"

You might not even have to take it apart, hopefully rice doesn't get under the sticks.

This is the correct thing to try first do not take it apart just stick it in a bag of rice. Let it sit for 2 days

Remove the battieries or battiery pack

Could just leave it alone for a few days and see if it just dries out it on its own.

Usually anything electronic that gets fried from water is past saving but like everyone is saying take it apart and check the spot and see if you can get a part to replace the fried bits but if not then RIP controller. Hopefully it lived a long life!
