$ curl -v https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/111111/?access_token=123234234.sdjsdjhsdfh1
<html><body><h1>500 Server Error</h1>
An internal server error occured.
</body></html>
The same request made from other network versus the same IP api.instagram.com (forced by hosts) produces OK response always. As the token is the same that is linked to our client_id I suppose we're not Banned/Abused by someone
$ curl -v https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/111111/?access_token=123234234.sdjsdjhsdfh1
{"meta":{"code":200},"data":{"username":".....

The 500 error code is a generic message that appears when something unexpected happened on the web server and the server can’t offer more specific information. Rather than giving you a normal web page, an error occurred on the web server and the server gave your browser ...
One of the most common causes of WordPress 500 error is a corrupted.htaccess file (found in the root directory) that might arise due to a plugin update, theme update, etc. or during the migration from one server to another. To fix this error you can replace the current htaccess file with another one.
