Can I repot this flower, and if so, do I keep the flower in water to grow roots or just plant it in a pot? Please advise and thank you. While watering my bromeliad, the flower broke off!

I'm sure I've over watered them from what I've read on this website. It's like the root of the stalk is rotting. It's still in bloom, but the leaves are all starting to die. Is there any way I can still save it? I’ve had two bromeliads plants and I’ve managed to kill them both. I’m sure I’ve over watered them from what I’ve read on this website.

Is it possible to cut away the parent flower and leave the pups growing? Although everthing looks healthy the mother flower is dried and brownish and obviously is dying.
