Depends on where the escalator is, both which state or country, and what facility the escalator is in.

Here, at a minimum, for a random escalator it would be a Class C misdemeanor.

If you manage to do more than $500 worth of damage, but less than $1,000, it's a Class A misdemeanor.

OTOH, if it's an escalator with more than $1,000 worth of damage, or involving "a public utility, telecommunications carrier, railroad, public transportation facility or medical facility", now we're talking a felony:

What would it count as if the soda got spilt unintentionally?

If someone else spilled it accidentally, you'd be fine, but because he asked the question here, there's evidence of malice aforethought. :)
