The language of the insurance contract can't be altered by the will. If an insured passes away the benefits will go to the listed beneficiary regardless of what the will states.

Please note that this then makes the otherwise tax free death benefit of the life insurance policy subject to estate taxes and would also be subject to the delay and expense of probate.
