Activity of sperm: Sperm do not suddenly die when exposed to air. If there were active sperm just outside your vaginal opening and a finger was inserted pushing them into the vagina there is a small chance that you can become pregnant.

Risk for pregnancy: Sperm live outside until the semen dries, so yes if sperm was anywhere near your vagina there is always a chance for pregnancy, its best for you to take emergency contraception if its within 72 hours.
