Have you checked yourself for possible solutions, for instance by looking at InDesign ExtendScript API (13.0): XMLElement properties?

An XMLInstruction instance doesn't seem to have any property or method to retrieve the tagged text which is kind of logic given the processing instruction concept:

Only workaround for you is to duplicate the PI to a temp frame and look at the story contents.
