Where you once using an older version of ACF? 4 perhaps?

This is incorrect

'post_title' => $_POST['fields']['field_5e0b90db10390']

$_POST['fields'] was used in ACF versions before 5. In ACF 5 or higher you need to use $_POST['acf']

Your code is setting the post title to an empty value

use this

'post_title' => $_POST['acf']['field_5e0b90db10390']

Also, do not do this

do_action('acf/save_post', $post_id);

This happens automatically for every post that is inserted, calling this yourself means that it will happen twice.
