Comment (by domainsupport):

 I've not tested those rules but that's how I would block third party
 access to /wp-cron.php if I was running an Apache server. For Nginx I
 believe you edit the configuration file and add ...

 {{{
 location ~ ^/wp-cron.php {
      allow 127.0.0.1;
      deny all;
 }
 }}}

 Preventing all but the local machine from being able to access wp-cron.php
 would affirm that the issue is with the way you're firing cron. That's
 where my expertise ends though as I don't use the OS to fire cron on any
 of our sites so cannot provide any insight, sorry.
