Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Sistani (may Allah protect him):
Touching a dead body does not nullify wudu. In any case, wudu is not required when washing the deceased, based on the preferred view that every washing suffices for wudu.

Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Khamenei (may Allah protect him):
It nullifies wudu.
