I read an article long back, regarding quantum entanglement, where scientists have used it to transfer data instantly and hypothesized it can be developed to transfer more data between edges of space instantly. I am no scientist, this is just what I read online which led me to this thought.

No, this is a misreading of the results. At this point it appears that actual transmission of information faster than light speed is impossible, even with entangled particles.

Sure, scientists have demonstrated that the states of particles stay correlated at a distance, but as soon as the particle on one end is manipulated or forced into a state, it completely breaks the entanglement with the other particle, offering no possibility for encoding data that can be transferred at greater than light speed.
