If I flash back an Increasing Vengeance, and then I copy it (possibly with another increasing Vengeance) does the copy still make two copies, or does it only make one because spell copies aren't cast?

No, it will not make 2 copies. See the ruling on Increasing Vengeance.

The copies were not cast from the graveyard, so the replacement effect doesn't apply.
