1. It is Subjunctive because “insistir” usually implies that one person wants another to do something. However it COULD mean that some one merely insists that it IS what2 is happening! (a statement of fact). It is necessary to know what the speaker has in mind!
2. Again, I’d go with the subjunctive = imposition of will.
