I have done that many a time. Looks like you shorted a few contacts. 
Ahh the smell of burning resistors. Usually if it's water and it has 
time to evaporate it should be fine. I've opened the old extended Apple 
keyboards and been able to repair them but i'm not sure about the newer 
ones. But if you want to take the risk, there are screws on the back of 
the keyboard that releases the case from it. Take those out and then 
you have access to the inner workings. But before you make the leap to 
taking the thing apart, try perhaps a hairdryer on a warm (not hot) 
setting too evaporate any water that might still be inside.
