I tried to clean my Fuji X-S10 sensor and made it much worse. Did I also break something?

Everything is probably fine. Do the wet cleaning and with the amount of dust you have it may take a few passes.

What you broke is probably a sweat!

Agreed! And for what it's worth, I highly doubt it's even possible to 'drag' the glass covering the sensor by applying some force to it. It's an integral part of the image sensor, not just a loose piece of glass mounted above the sensor. If you applied enough force to break the glass loose from the sensor, you would have basically wrecked the camera and that doesn't seem to be the case here.
