Good news for you is that you are not a part of a very competitive pool. Hence, you might be extended an olive branch. But the bad news is, it is difficult to make the cut without 75% in each section.
I recommend each INSEAD applicant to secure a minimum of 75% in each section and target 700+ score overall

I had the exact same issue and still got in. Don’t let it stop you from applying - just work hard on the motivational essays and highlight your quant skills in the optional essay.
