Regarding passenger floor, there are a few culprits where water can get in:

the heater box

seal is often poor, and the drain may be blocked: test by pouring water through the air intake grills (with the hood open) and watch to see if it all runs out through the drain. If not it's probably pushing into the car through the heater box, and you can run inside and stick your hear down there to see.

any wire holes twixt engine compartment and cabin - bung them up with anything sticky and water repellent

Take out any covering that you have on the floor until you get this sorted out, so that it can dry out quickly. Most amazon owners sympathise and have been chasing leaks like this for years. Good luck!
