I'm submitting this as a patch. I've used it on hundreds of latex
fragments over the past week or so and haven't experienced any issues
(which is expected since the change is small).

Subject: [PATCH] org-element.el: allow environment blocks in math delimiters
* lisp/org-element.el (org-element--latex-begin-environment): Add a
non-capturing block for `\(' or `$' so that previously recognized
latex environments can also appear within an inline math environment.
* lisp/org-element.el (org-element--latex-end-environment): Match the
begin environment noncapturing block with `$' or `\)'.
