Welcome to the boards! Just a friendly reminder, questions like these can simply be asked on one of our main, bigger threads.
Pertaining to your question, they just can't. It's programmed that way. Be thankful that you can at least absorb Link's bombs, it wasn't like that in previous games.
Also in Brawl, I believe
also couldn't absorb anything of Snake's, either. So maybe isn't supposed to absorb these types of things.

We couldn't absorb any explosives in Melee/Brawl, so that's kind of a moot point. There are still a few explosions that we can't bucket (notably Mechakoopas and the Clown Car explosion from Bowser Jr.) but there are a couple of items that, while we can't absorb on a direct hit, we can absorb if they explode passively. Those include Villager's Lloid Rocket, Duck Hunt's Trick Shot can, and (randomly) his clay pigeon. I'm guessing it has to do with Oil Panic technically being canceled before the item explodes (but I'm not totally sure about that).
