No luck with method 1-3, I can not find KB4568831 in the Microsoft Update Catalog to download
Try to update manually via Microsoft update catalog
Here is the link for KB4568831
Download the dedicated update package for your architecture then install it
It should work

I was also stuck in this loop
And manual installation solved all this loop issue.
Insider preview updates are available only via Windows Update, never in Update Catalog.
Hi Don,
My name is Jocelyn, an independent advisor and a fellow Windows 10 user like you. I'll be glad to help you today.
Please try the following methods and check after each.
Method 1: Disable your antivirus software
If your device has third-party antivirus software, please disable them for the meantime and then try to install the Windows update again.
Method 2: Run the Windows Update Troubleshooter
Select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot, then select Windows Update under Get up and running, and then select Run the troubleshooter.
Method 3. Manually Reset Windows Update Components
Open Command prompt, and then Run as Administrator.
Stop the BITS, Cryptographic, MSI Installer, and Windows Update Services.
In the command prompt window, copy-paste the following command one at a time and press Enter:
net stop wuauserv
net stop cryptSvc
net stop bits
net stop msiserver
Rename the SoftwareDistribution and Catroot2 folder.
In the command prompt window, copy-paste the following command one at a time and press Enter:
ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 Catroot2.old
Now restart the BITS, Cryptographic, MSI Installer, and Windows Update Services.
In the command prompt window, copy-paste the following command one at a time and press Enter:
net start wuauserv
net start cryptSvc
net start bits
net start msiserver
Close the window once completed and then restart the computer.
After restarting the computer, check Windows Updates again.
Method 4. Downloading updates from Microsoft Update Catalog manually:
http://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/home.aspx
Let us know how it turns out.

Jocelyn
Thank you for your kind suggestion.
I tried to restart/rename Update services/folders, and to install *.msu as you suggested.
But Windows Update still requested to install the already installed KB.
And for my case, uninstalling solved the problem.
