Internal storage cannot be upgraded. It is what it is. So, it will not have changed, even if you upgraded your iCloud plan.

So, what to do:

Clear Space:

Try clearing internal storage though use of the following:

• Cache keeps a snapshot of the last time you visited a site.
• Go Here: Clear the History and Cookies from Safari on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch - Apple Support

B. Clean TV and Music Libraries:

You purchased iCloud storage space, not disk space?

You cant upgrade your iPhone storage. I think you purchased the 50GB of iCloud space which is cloud storage (online storage) not physical storage on your phone
