Danger of hydrolocking is low if the motor is running as the oil will go into the intake as a heavy vapor/mist not a full on liquid. Restarting after a tow maybe another matter as oil collected in intake may run off and pool into one of the cylinders, which is still unlikely. But better safe than sorry.
