Water certainly can exist in a vacuum. It will evaporate, but not much faster than it would in dry air at standard atmosphere. The vacuum would not change the viscosity of liquid water. The viscosity of water is low, but it is not zero.

Correct. At zero pressure it would boil away and become gaseous (water vapor). The hydrogen bond interactions between neighboring water molecules ensures viscosity and water tension. Surface tension acts on many things and is responsible for why rain falls in droplets, etc.
