If shape has two parent transforms it must be an instance right?
import maya.cmds as cmds
sphere = cmds.polySphere()
cmds.instance(sphere)
getShape = cmds.listRelatives(sphere, shapes=True)
parents = cmds.listRelatives(getShape[0], allParents=True)
if len(parents) > 1:
print getShape[0], "is an instance"
