In lab tests, warmer mixtures have been shown burn more efficiently than colder ones.

That being said, recent FI cars have their fuel heated at the fuel rail, so you'd be wasting your time insulating the lines. Even if your fuel doesn't get heated, I don't think it would make a significant difference anyway. Installing a fuel heater might, but not just insulating.
