Anecdotal: My explore feed has been 100% populated by semi-naked women for a long time. I realized that it could lead to some embarrassing moments when my friends would see it and I decided to change the feed. However, I was clicking on them so it as at least somewhat organic. The issue was, that since it was the ONLY thing on my feed, after some time I also had no option.

At some point a couple of months ago I decided that I wanted to change it. So I started to consciously like and follow hashtags and people around memes, standup, art and sports.

Now, I like primarily meme pictures and funny pieces and never on any semi-naked model. However, my feed has changed to a 80-20 (models-memes). I still think that there is some Instagram push there, since obviously, my preferences on content have changed, but the algorithm barely gave a damn.
