You may need to use a tool such as Keygram - https://www.thekeygram.com
It does exactly what you are looking for with the follow/unfollow

Try https://www.instagram.com/web/ https://www.instagram.com/web/friendships/6810462142/unfollow/
6810462142 = ID USER... I think it works

As per this article the Instagram API no longer provides functionality to follow or unfollow users. Looking at the current endpoints provided by the Instagram API the set of operations looks very limited - fetch a user, or a user's latest media, and get a list of comments on your media. You can view the changelog for the Instagram API here.
So to answer your question, no you can no longer use a bot to follow or unfollow a user via the Instagram API. Yes you will be able to write a Selenium script that will do this.
