If the tongue suffers severe damage. This is the kind of damage beyond tongue piercing, for example. The tongue contains a regenerative feature that allows the tongue to grow back into its original form with little scar tissue.

How does tongue detect spiciness?

There is not an actual 'spicy' taste bud. When you get oils from a chilli pepper on you hands it starts to burn quickly, this is similar to what happens to your tongue. Capsaicin, the chemical that produces the sensation of spiciness is damaging some of the nerves at the surface of the tongue. Hence, someone who eats spicy food regularly will grow a tolerance for even spicier foods as the nerves on the tongue have become 'numb' to capsaicin.
