Remove the complete agitator. Unscrew the top of the agitator and you will get to the screw that holds the entire module. You will need an extension bar to get to the screw with a ratchet set. The head should be 5/16" and then you can get to the item.

It would appear that the drum seal and bearings have failed. If you have been doing constant cold water washing and using fabric softener and the machine is over 5 years old, I would say its time for a new machine. There are not many that last past 5 years any more especially with cold water and fabric softener usage. Bearing and seal replacement can be very expensive. The drum shaft (Spider assembly) will probably need changing as well.

if it drains into a bucket it should drain into the stand pipe too,does it overflow out of the stand pipe (waste pipe) when draining?if so the pipe is blocked,also how high is the pipe?draining into a bucket might be less on the pump because gravity is helping drain if bucket is on floor,if the pipe is up high it might not be able to push it,there could be something in the drain hose that goes from the tub to the pump if it did drain no problems before,also when you stick the drain hose into the stand pipe if it's tight it might not have enough air getting into pipe to let it drain,fill the washer,put it on drain after you have some water in it,pull the drain hose out to the top of the stand pipe and let it drain,if it drains ok and water is going down pipe with no back up then it's an air problem,hard to say without being there,you're just gonna have to play detective,did you try to hold the bucket up higher than the washer so the water won't siphon out,if the bucket is up higher than the water level in the machine and it drains then you have a problem with the stand pipe or air gap problem.
