No nothing will happen to the agent. No investigation will happen. The insurance company will be left holding the bag.
A few years ago, a friend of mine got t-boned by a Normal cop as he drove through an intersection. The cop claimed that he had his lights on and got t-boned by my friend and wrote him a ticket. Basically the cop ran a red light and covered it up.
My friend finally got a hold of the video from the intersection. It showed him entering the intersection, then went black for 30 seconds, then showed the results of the accident. At least he got out of being "at fault" for the accident, but his insurer declined to go after the police department.
Sadly, at all levels of law enforcement, there is an attitude that they are above the law. (Not everyone has it, but it is not uncommon.) Because LE controls what is known about these incidents, they often get away with it.
