Does that mean I get more vitamins (e.g. because the vitamins were biologically unavailable in the rice, but available in the water) or fewer (e.g. because the reverse, or if a significant amount of water boils off)?

Water loss through boiling shouldn't make a difference, as the vitamins are not volatile and will not boil off with it.
