Wordpress permalinks redirect to homepage unless Plain / Default

I'm working on a client's site and I've encountered a pretty persistent bug. If I change the permalinks to anything other than "plain", all site links redirect you back to the homepage.

I think this is a database issue but I'm out of my depth since I don't do databases often. But when I built this site I worked with a developer that migrated their sales data out of Prestashop to Woommerce. So I assume something might have happened there? I found another post that says it might be the rewrite_rules table but I'm not seeing any error when I search it. Is there a plugin or tool I could use to isolate what might be causing this weird redirect?

I'm nervous about breaking something so I appreciate any kind of help anyone can offer!

Details: Host: Hostinger | Wordpress Version: 5.5.1 | Woocommerce: 4.4.1 | Wordfence 7.4.11

What I've tried with no success:

Current .htaccess (site changed to 'url.com' until I get client approval):

# BEGIN WordPress
# The directives (lines) between "BEGIN WordPress" and "END WordPress" are
# dynamically generated, and should only be modified via WordPress filters.
# Any changes to the directives between these markers will be overwritten.

# END WordPress

# Wordfence WAF
<IfModule LiteSpeed>
php_value auto_prepend_file '/url.com/public_html/wordfence-waf.php'
</IfModule>
<IfModule lsapi_module>
php_value auto_prepend_file '/url.com/public_html/wordfence-waf.php'
</IfModule>

# END Wordfence WAF


# DO NOT REMOVE THIS LINE AND THE LINES BELLOW SSL_REDIRECT:url.com
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (www\.)?url.com
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
# DO NOT REMOVE THIS LINE AND THE LINES BELLOW SSL_REDIRECT:url.com
