It's technically not an instant win, just a ton of points and an instant end to the game. In a lopsided enough match a team could catch it and still lose.
That literally happens in the books
In the world cup, right? All these people discussing how the snitch is an instant win got me thinking I totally imagined that happening
And once also in a game Harry didn't play in cause he was... banned I think. Although that made more sense because the quidditch cup is based on point differential not w/l, so catching the snitch and ensuring getting the 150 points is a good idea even if you lose.
