you can run first composer diagnose, and check what the problem if in any case all is ok. then run

composer.phar self-update

I have fixed this in Windows with:

php -d memory_limit=-1 C:/ProgramData/ComposerSetup/bin/composer.phar update

Composer easily uses one gigabyte of memory or more when updating the dependencies, and your error message states an allowed memory limit of about 1 GB - reducing the limit to 512 MB won't really help, you have to increase it beyond 1GB.
