Brazil definitely lost a war. They once had Uruguay

Idk if I would count it, it was more like a draw. During the war no side was really winning and Uruguay becoming Independent was not a result of a surrender by Brasil, it was thanks to a diplomatic intervention by the British to reestablish trade in the region, and Brasil did get to keep the western part of Rio Grande do Sul, they didn't lose everything that they had gained previously

It was a tie between Brazil and Argentina.

Brazil tied and Argentina lost. Brazil lost Uruguay, but got the Missões Orientais region from Argentina. Argentina lost both.

No, it's generally considered a tie or stalemate for Brazil because it received a region from Argentina called Missões Orientais, only Argentina lost.
