Its not salt which is the problem its too much salt. All living things need some salt. But too much salt is poisonous to plants just as it is to animals such as ourselves.salt water is hypo osmmotic for the plant cells so there will be exosmosis that is the water will be drawn out of the plant cells and the plant will shrink and not survive

Yes it does. What happens is that the higher concentration of salt in the soil outside of the plant cells causes water to move outside of the cells to try and equalize the concentration. Root cells die and, if bad enough, the plant will die. The damage gives the plant a burnt look- often on the leaf edges first.
The same thing happens with too much of any mineral.
Some types of plants can tolerate higher levels of salt and not be damaged. Their cells have a high concentration of salt already
