SavedInstances uses the default font of QTip, the same one Blizzard uses, GameTooltipHeaderText, and it uses Fonts/FRIZQT___CYR.TTF in Russian client, Fonts/FRIZQT__.TTF in English client.

https://github.com/Gethe/wow-ui-source/blob/532edb9c5c2930dcc60a2f59c48f8fb414652be1/Interface/SharedXML/SharedFonts.xml#L1677-L1693

Without font with Russian character, the game will fail to display it correctly. I think forcing font file would break the ability to let other addon to adjust GameTooltipHeaderText and SI tooltip, and don't like to do it.

You can download FRIZQT___CYR.TTF, and then rename and put it to _retail_/Fonts/FRIZQT__.TTF to fix this.
