My question is... if I break the transmission, can I throw a ZF8HP750 from a Hellcat on my car and be good or is it too larger/different mounting to the engine?

Won't work. It's too big plus BMW electronics are highly integrated. You can't even swap in a new ZF 8AT without coding the DME and TCM.
You'd best have a lot of money laying around for a ZF replacement as the ZF 8AT in the 2 series isn't up to the task of those levels of torque over the long term (HP is meaningless to a transmission, it's the torque). The 6MT would have been a much better choice for that level of power.
