I suspect that whatever you are proxy_pass'ing to is seeing that it
is getting a http connection, and it has been configured to insist on
having a https connection.

In this particular case, your "listen 80 default_server" server
block presumably includes "localhost"; and so your "proxy_pass
http://localhost:80;" directive is talking back to that. Which is where
the loop is.

So - proxy_pass to something that will return content.

Cheers,
