Dear bmk,
1+3. Calculations using double hybrid functionals are generally possible. 
CP2K supports double hybrid functionals based on MP2, SOS-MP2 and RPA 
including analytical nuclear gradients and stress tensors. I have already 
done that in CP2K pretty extensively, see my list of 
publications: https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=list_works&hl=de&user=Pn4YqtsAAAAJ 
for some ideas. You may also check the supporting information with the 
respective input files for ideas on how to set up these calculations. 
Meanwhile, CP2K supports the D4 correction as well.
2. A system of your size was already feasible 10 years ago using CP2K. 
Mauro Del Ben (see https://doi.org/10.1021/ct4002202) ran calculations 
using up to 512 water molecules. I have only tried 128 water molecules so 
far (with RPA gradients on the now decommissioned Piz Daint).
Best,
Frederick
