Short answer
Boiling is a reliable way to sanitize 100% silicone toys that have no motor, battery or electronic parts. A few minutes in boiling water is enough, then let the toy cool on a clean towel. Never boil vibrators, ABS plastic or porous materials like TPE or jelly, and check the manufacturer's guidance first.
