i.e. pressing the "Esc" key does not exit the current insert mode.

This sounds suspiciously like a mapping interfering. First, try
starting vim with no startup processed:
vim -u NONE
and see if you get the same behavior.
If so, check your various mappings:
:map
:map!
to see if something is mapped to <esc> or <c-[>
-tim
vim -u NONE
has no problem with the Esc key and
:map
:map!
do not see anything mapped to <esc> or <c-[> .
Is that in the 'no problem' (vim -u NONE) or the problematic case?
If 'vim -u NONE' works properly and 'vim' doesn't, you should look for
what mappings are different between the two.
To make the comparison easier, you can try:
vim -u NONE
:redir > ~/vimnone.map.txt
:silent! map
:silent! map!
:redir END
vim (start how you normally start it)
:redir > ~/vim.map.txt
:silent! map
:silent! map!
:redir END
(Then compare the vim and vimnone .map.txt files.)
