This is to be expected. In the second case, the second line defines
a list item, which has precedence over any LaTeX snippet.

I think this is because of a limitation on the number of lines a LaTeX
snippet can span across (IIRC, 3 is the maximum).
In both cases, I suggest to use LaTeX environments instead:
\begin{equation*}
x = y
+ 1
\end{equation*}
and
\begin{equation*}
x =
\begin{array}{cc}
y & u \\
z & v
\end{array}
\end{equation*}
