You may want to look at how the boot seals, often they are not correctly adjusted when they leave the factory.
Also I believe it is very common for them to leak around the rear wing, and drip in from the fixing screws. It is not a good design.
I recommend removing the r/w and making a proper seal with a silicon type sealant around the base and also around the screws.

I second this suggestion - mine also leaked & was traced to there being no seal around the fixing screws for the Exige spoiler - screws out good amount of silicon in, refit screw & no more leakAlso I believe it is very common for them to leak around the rear wing, and drip in from the fixing screws.

Another thing worth checking (once you've removed all the carpet bits) is the wiring that goes into the engine compartment from the battery - there is a rubber bung around where the wiring feeds through & i found mine had popped out leaving the boot space exposed to air/moisture from the engine compartment
If i were you i'd also get your carpets out of the boot now & dry them inside as the longer you leave them in (regardless if you fix the issue) they will hold a fair amount of moisture in them & you'll still get moisture build up
