The steering force path through the DPS is all mechanical. The steering assist motor sits outside of the steering forces path. I think you stand a chance of creating more damage to the DPS motor and steering torque sensor by the heavy turning torque while pushing the bike by the handlebar with the ignition turned on. With no power to the DPS the assist motor is free to turn with almost no resistance.
Here's a video showing the internals of the DPS. The first minute is not relevant. The video is of a DPS for an M3 off road but I see no reason why the Spyder one wouldn't the same other than size.
