Water leak question

I experienced the famous cabin filter water leak. Lot of water in the car!
The drain grommet was packed full of fine trash. That’s taken care of. My question is if enough water enters because of the above issue will it make it to the rear floorboard. Not as the front filled up and it spilled over, but I suspect the bumps that the seat mounts to is not sealed as in a dam.

Am am I correct or do I have two leaks, currently drying it out with windows down and fan.

Thanks

There are drain plugs in the doors also that can get clogged, check them also.

My carpets used to get soaked when it rained. There are 2 black flat rubber drain tubes on the firewall about 10" down from the windshield on both sides. A little hard to find, but I stuck my finger up there and released years of mud and leaves to let the water drain. Problem solved!
