Most STIs and STDs have a short survival rate without a host. So fully submerging the cup in a rolling boil (15 mins) should take care of it. You might also want to wash/boil any container or pouch that you use to store the cup.
For peace of mind, I would discountinue cup use and double check with your healthcare provider to see what they suggest.
Good Luck <3
