vinylic carbon are less reactive for  nucleophilic substitution reactions because halogen is bonded to sp2 carbon.
Sp2 carbon halogen bonds are shorter and stronger than sp3 carbon halogen bond because of small size of sp2 orbitals.
Due to this stronger bonds vinylic halogens do not undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions.
