Unfortunately, once an Instagram story expires after 24 hours, it is no longer possible to see who viewed it. To keep track of viewers, consider saving your stories to 'Highlights'. Stories added to Highlights remain visible until you choose to remove them, allowing you to see viewer information for a longer period. Otherwise, viewership details are lost once a story expires and is not saved in Highlights.
