Different vehicles have different wiring systems, and what got burned out would depend on where your starter cable were. All things dependent, it could be the ECM relay which gets fried, the ECM itself, chassis nodes (if present), etc.

Hooked up my jumper cables the wrong way by mistake in my 97 grand Cherokee Laredo 5.2l does this have a separate voltage regulator component or is it located inside of the alternator IT RUNS HI IDLE?
If the jumper cables were hooked up the wrong way by mistake on a 1997 Grand Cherokee Laredo 5.2L, it might be necessary to check the alternator to make sure it is turning in the right direction. If the battery is still being charged, the vehicle should be fine. A high idle could be a problem with the EFI or Electronic Fuel Injectors.

What is wrong if after hooking up jumper cables wrong the car will start but will not idle and will only run if the gas pedal is held down?
You blew the voltage regulator. Depending on the model, it is either a separate component or located inside of your alternator. Based on your problem, I would guess you need a new alternator. Replace it and your car will be fine.
