It's not mentioned in the story. Could be possible he never even did insult him, and Montresor is just a murdering maniac.

I'm confused as to why Poe did this. Wouldn't it be more horrifying if Fortunato were left to rot, still screaming?

It never says he dies right away, just that he stops making noise.

Also, Montresor throws a burning torch into the place to burn up all the air.
