Sperm viability: http://www.webmd.com/infertility-and-reproduction/guide/sperm-and-semen-faq

Sperm can be viable if there is an aqueous environment. . You showered and washed  your  hand, rinsing off sperm  so the probability of having  residual sperm is low. It appears you may have dried off or the hand air dried which would limit viability even more . Therefore the overall probability is quite low.

any chance of live sperm on my hands after masturbating, taking a warm shower for 15 minutes (washing all visible semen off my hands), applying body wash with hands, and then drying well after?

Nope: Sounds like you have cleaned everything up well, and I cannot imagine residual sperm being present after all that cleaning
