the idea of nailing up a 1"X4" to use as a template and then running along it with a skill saw sounds to me like the best idea I have heard....that is what I would do.
may score it first with a carpet knife just to keep the cut clean.
ETA: if you find water 5' from the floor, I would take it down to the ceiling...no point in trying to cut and install half sheets.

I supposing the cleaner the cut the better it will be when adding back the sheetrock...?

I've see. Some wonders done with bad gaps between dry wall. If it isn't super straight, they can mud/tape it to not be noticeable.
