I have worked in mental hospitals, and have had issues with people becoming "water intoxicated" due to their psychosis. So despite what people tell you , you absolutely can drink too much water. Is it likely for a person not insane? No. But yeah....it can happen.

It doesn't hurt your kidneys, but can give you heart attack and other similar. You can make it worse by drinking distilled water, as it will leach more minerals from your body.
