Could an ex wife contest her ex husband's life insurance benefits claiming he was to hold a policy for her and then made his current wife the policy beneficiary?

She could contest it, but it would be a futile effort, as any person has the right to change beneficiaries even if they are happily married but choose not to name their spouse. If such a stipulation was in the dissolution of marriage petition, the ex spouse would have to file suit in an attempt to enforce it. Filing such a lawsuit is relatively simple, winnng is a whole different matter.

If the life insurance policy had listed as the beneficiary the spouse only then it is not considered part of the estate and is not subject to claims.
