What was said wasn't an insult. "Your momma...." are jokes, "you suck do bad..." are insults. Tbagging a dead body is an insult.

Implying you are going to rape someone and then saying it's not rape because you would enjoy it isn't a typical "insult".

So yeah i read what they said. It just didn't really apply to the situation.

It may not be a typical insult, but it is still insulting. And if someone says that as an insult, that is going too far.

No it is not. “I’m going to kick you” isn’t an insult, it’s a threat. Someone could try to make the case that it’s a “joke” but it isn’t an insult.
