My friend did the same thing, and it can sometimes be an easy fix.
A couple of quick things to check. This should take like 30 seconds, is not messy, and saves you from the "oh, I feel so stupid" moment. If it doesn't work, then you know you've tried the basics, and it's time to call professionals!

Just get a $5 disposal wrench. It sticks in the bottom of the disposal and unjams it. Super simple to do.

I believe you actually need a tool like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000BQ7WE0/ to get in there properly.. either that or you've ruined the motor. Either way though I would not be putting rice, pasta or starchy things down your garbage disposal it's a nightmare waiting to happen.
Lowe's has the same item for the same price.
Yes, $9 for a little wrenchette is definitely overpriced. Even amazon's price of $6 is too high, IMHO. I guess the lesson is "don't lose it" and if you do, just use a regular 1/4 inch hex wrench (aka an allen key).
