If I play Insight,and see a Resumed Hostilities and play that action, which happens first. The rearranging of the two remaining cards (due to Insight) or the actual playing of Resumed Hostilities?

Dark Virtue Battle: Target one of your Samurai: Look at the top 3 cards of any Fate deck. If any are Action cards or Rings, you may play one of them for an additional Battle Action on it; if the action is on a Ring, you may pay the cost of discarding it from your hand by discarding it from the deck. You may rearrange the order of the remaining cards you looked at.

Battle: Target a Personality opposing one of your Personalities. Remove one of the target’s abilities. Draw a card. If you removed an ability, you may take an additional Battle action from a card in your hand.

Playing Resumed Hostilities as an additional Battle Action happens after the end of last Reaction to the resolution or the end of Insight (if any). Insight allows you to rearrange the order of the cards you looked at, before you play Resumed Hostilities. Thus you can choose which card you will draw thanks to Resumed Hostilities.

Glossary, Additional: "When an action or triggered trait grants an additional action, the timing of the additional action is delayed, such that the action is taken once the action or trait that granted it has ended, and the opportunity to play Reactions to the end of the action or trait has passed."
