There is something really strange going on with your modprobe. Your
modinfo looks fine, but the modprobe "insmod:ERROR" makes no sense.

Try running:

 # depmod -a
 # modprobe wl

If that fails, then I suggest you clean up the system and reinstall
kmod-wl by:

 1) boot an older kernel
 2) remove kmod-wl and the latest kernel (3.10.0-327.4.4.el7.x86_64)
 3) reboot
 4) install the latest kernel
 5) reboot
 6) install kmod-wl
