Theoretically it’s possible to make a device that can’t be hacked. Someone has to find a way to hack it, which has to have been programmed into the device by mistake. If it has no mistakes, it can’t be hacked.

But a lot of devices have a crazy amount of code in them, which means they probably have a crazy amount of mistakes, and the hacker just needs to find one.
