You need to add the 'uploadType' parameter to your insert request array. eg:

$result2 = $service->files->insert(
    $file,
    array(
         'data' => $data,
         'mimeType'   => "application/vnd.google-apps.spreadsheet",                  
         'convert' => true,
         'uploadType' => 'media',
    )
);

Simply use the code as below:

$result2 = $service->files->create($file, array(
            'data' => $data,
            'mimeType' => 'application/vnd.google-apps.spreadsheet',
            'uploadType' => 'multipart'
        ));

Let me know if any issue.
