It's
A wood fire
because
Water puts out a wood fire, it is not alive, it has no mouth, it needs oxygen (air) and it can grow bigger.

An alternative that still somewhat fits, but is probably not the intended answer.
It is:
A soap bubble
Because:
It's not alive, but can grow by having air blown into it.
It has no mouth, but requires air to exist.
Splashing water on a bubble destroys it - Like in a kitchen sink.

Those occur between layers of different density, not necessarily limited to one of those layers being air, so they can occur without it.

@person27 if we're delving deeping into it then fire can also burn without 'air' - it doesn't need the nitrogen or any of the other elements - only oxygen is necessary.

@LioElbammalf It doesn't even need oxygen, just something that will fill a similar chemical rule. Among others Chlorinating and Fluorinating chemicals will work in place of oxygen sources, and in some cases can consume as fuel things that you'd normally consider already burned up like water, carbon dioxide, or sand.

I went for an alternate solution
Lightning
I am not a living thing, but I can grow
Watch a slow motion video of lightning strike - it grows from clouds to earth (technically from earth to clouds!)
I don't have lungs, but I need air
Lightning doesn't happen without air (you can do it small scale in a lab, but it doesn't happen in nature or on a scale of lightning, so this is correct)
I have no mouth, but water kills me
No lightning strikes within solid water!

I went for an alternate solution
Lightning
I am not a living thing, but I can grow
Watch a slow motion video of lightning strike - it grows from clouds to earth (technically from earth to clouds!)
I don't have lungs, but I need air
Lightning doesn't happen without air (you can do it small scale in a lab, but it doesn't happen in nature or on a scale of lightning, so this is correct)
I have no mouth, but water kills me
No lightning strikes within solid water!
