Drain and repeat 2 or 3 times, letting slices soak and changing water every 10 minutes. Drain onion; pat dry. Arrange bread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until edges are crisp and golden, 6 minutes. Let cool completely on sheet on a wire rack; transfer to a large bowl. Add tomatoes and 1/2 teaspoon salt; let sit 10 minutes.
