If it's useful, I believe the reason why the queries you were using
didn't work was because you were using the alternation which only allows
for selecting a single option. This should work, regardless of the
order:

(template_substitution
 "${" @font-lock-constant-face
 "}" @font-lock-constant-face) @default
(escape_sequence) @font-lock-constant-face
(template_string) @font-lock-string-face

However, I am unsure how to address potentially nested template
substitutions. Perhaps a function could assist in that.
