Comment (by nicholas_io):

 It's been a while that I debug this but it looks like get_rest_url call
 get_home_url passing 'rest' scheme (I'm not sure what that means exactly)
 but that caused the url to be returned without https and the quoted block
 failed to set the https scheme due to @igmoweb explanation.

 BTW, this is how I fixed this issue: forcing https using the rest_url
 {{{#!php
 <?php
         add_filter( 'rest_url', function( $url ) {
                 if ( is_ssl() ) {
                         $url = set_url_scheme( $url, 'https' );
                         return $url;
                 }

                 return $url;
         });
 }}}
