No, you haven't properly checked every wire, because you would have already found the problem if you did.
Most likely some wire insulation melted when the battery was connected the wrong way. You need to get a wiring diagram specifically for your vehicle, and find out which circuits are protected by the fuse that's blowing. Once you have that information you then need to do continuity and short-to-ground testing on every wire in each of those protected circuits. And once you have identified all of the problem wires, you will need to check every inch of all of them. And once you have repaired all of those wires, if you're REALLY lucky, that will be the only problem coming out of the mistake you made. You could be pulling paneling and parts off, and wiring bundles apart for days or even weeks, but the only other choice is sending it to the boneyard.
