Out empire is debating about the meaning of insult, we know that it will reduce the opinion of our rival empire but we wounder what’s the application of insulting rivals?
Is it good to push other rival to attack us or declare war on us?
Are there other applications or side effects for insulting?
Mechanically, insult is at the moment nothing more than a temporary -100 opinion modifier, which may possibly goad an empire into attacking you, but it's unlikely to work unless it's a fallen empire.
Roleplay wise, it is of course a method to show somebody you really don't like them.
The function of insult was greater in other Paradox games, so I suspect it will be expanded upon in later patches/dlc (e.g. in EU4 it gives a casus belli and provides power projection)

When at war, with a low rep, issuing a ‘insult’ command will promp the enemy ships into combat. Unsure if it works at all times, but I’m finding the pattern to be the same, insult a warring faction that -for a moments time- is not attacking and they will say something like ‘now you’ve done it’ and send all of their ships to bombard you.
