Once you have offloaded the app, the application will be offloaded. But, it keeps the app data stored on your iPhone.

Step 7 – Now, in the same Instagram app page, tap the “Reinstall App” function to reinstall the app.

If this reinstalling process is taking too much time, you can reinstall the Instagram app directly from the App Store.

See if this is working or not.
