Instagram API real time updates of likes and comments

I read the new documentation for Instagram subscriptions API. It says that after you subscribe, Instagram will notify you when people post new media on their page.

I would like to be notified when one of the user's post receive a new like or a comment?

Do you think this is possible?

The Instagram API does not currently support this option.

From the User Subscription Page:

User subscriptions are useful if you want to be notified when people who authenticated your app post new media on Instagram.

You will get a POST request only when there is a new post, it will not notify for likes or comments.
