Probably, this is the problem, I will investigate this type of configuration.

However, you try this:

   location / {
       root       /srv;
       try_files  /example.com/root$uri
                  /example.com/root$uri/
                  /wordpress/root/$uri
                  /wordpress/root/$uri/
                  /index.php?q=$request_uri;
   }

The reason why try_files tests files only against "root" is because
there is also "alias" that can be not expressed via simple concatenation.
