 To force FTP you can use
 {{{
 add_filter( 'filesystem_method', function( $method ) {
         return 'ftpext';
 } );
 }}}

 Steps to reproduce:

 1. Go to wp-admin/theme-install.php
 1. Select a theme and install
 1. Enter FTP credentials (wp-admin/update.php?action=install-
 theme&theme=itek&_wpnonce=3cbbfc5a2d)
 1. Click "Proceed"
 1. Failure. (wp-admin/update.php?action=install-
 theme&theme=itek&_wpnonce=d1c34b4560)

 Uploading via a ZIP works.
