WordPress multisite second site admin resulting in too many redirects error

I have a multisite installation that seems to be working just fine for the first site, but for the second site, the admin panel results in a "too many redirects" loop. What is the correct nginx or wordpress configuration to get this to work?

I have a non-WordPress installation at example.com
My first blog is setup at example.com/blog
My second blog is setup to be example.com/blog/tr. The frontend renders just fine.

The admin for the first site works just fine, as does the network admin panel.
So https://example.com/blog/wp-admin and https://example.com/blog/wp-admin/network/ result in pages that work fine. The url https://example.com/blog/tr/wp-admin results in too many redirects, though.

My nginx configuration for the wp-admin sections looks like this

if (!-e $request_filename) {
     rewrite /wp-admin$ $scheme://$host$uri/ permanent;     
     rewrite /wp-admin$ $host/$uri/ permanent;
     rewrite ^(/[^/]+)?(/wp-.*) $2 last;
     rewrite ^(/[^/]+)?(/.*.php) $2 last;
}

Here are my wp_blogs and wp_site tables

mysql> SELECT * FROM wp_site;
+----+-------------+--------+
| id | domain      | path   |
+----+-------------+--------+
|  1 | example.com | /blog/ |
+----+-------------+--------+

mysql> SELECT blog_id, site_id, domain, path FROM wp_blogs;
+---------+---------+-------------+-----------+
| blog_id | site_id | domain      | path      |
+---------+---------+-------------+-----------+
|       1 |       1 | example.com | /blog/    |
|       2 |       1 | example.com | /blog/tr/ |
+---------+---------+-------------+-----------+

wp-config.php

define( 'MULTISITE', true );
define( 'SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false );
define( 'DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'example.com' );
define( 'PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/blog/' );
define( 'SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );
define( 'BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );

I’ve tried changing the path for the second blog, to something with a different path like /blg/tr in case it was a path collision error, and I was still getting the problem. I also tried creating a second site in wp_sites and associating the second blog with that second site, also didn’t do anything different.

I also put in specific nginx location blocks for specifically /blog/tr/wp-admin and that seemed to break it more in different ways.

Is there anything I am missing or additional documentation that I am not finding to help debug my second site’s wp-admin section?
