Hello, I understand what you're saying.
It's certainly odd that they are saying your account is disabled, as opposed to having being permanently deleted. Trying to "recover" your account would probably take up more time than its worth, and you can be 100% that after deleting your account for a second time, anything would change concerning the retention of your personal data and email address. If you were able to recover the account, you could change the email address to a throw away account so that they can no longer bother you... however if they already have your email account from the first time, there is a good chance they will still have that account on record, even after changing it.
Besides contacting Facebook support (because Facebook owns Instagram) and requesting that they delete your data - if they manage to understand what you want, there isn't really much you can do.
In future, consider using a throw away email address for creating accounts (keep the login details etc, but just so its not on your main email account).
It may just be easier blocking Instagram on your email account. They will still have your email account, but won't be able to bother you any more.
I hope this helps,
Regards
