It depends. If the windings have been damaged from being shorted out by the screws (assuming the screws are cutting into the windings), then the motor is done. If the screws didn't cause much current to flow through the short, then it's fine. Like t-maxxracer32 said, try out the motor (with shorter screws, of course).
