Answer 1

It’s one amazing piece of ingenuity.

Some magnets lose magnetism at a certain temperature.

The one in the rice cooker lose it at a little above 100 Degree Celcius.

So if water is still in the cooker, the temperature stay at 100 (as any extra energy goes into vaporation instead) only when all water gone that temperature will go above 100, that’s when the magnet “turn off” and prevent your rice from burning.
