Corrupted Gems cannot be healed by Rose's tears or Steven's saliva, only physical injuries of people and broken gems.

The bubble doesn't prevent regeneration, it just prevents the Gem from forming a physical body. If a bubble pops, the Gem will form a new body or will remain a gem if regeneration is complete.

Think of it this way, Pearl healed for about 2-3 weeks? If they bubbled Pearl's gem immediately after she retreated and popped it one week later, nothing will happen as Pearl hasn't finished regenerating yet. Only after that 2-3 weeks of regeneraton will Pearl form a body.
