I have faced the same issue and this is what I did to solve it:

1. Delete the app on vercel and deploy it again from ServerlessWP README page
2. Go to the serverless.yml file and modify the timeout counter at line 13 from 15 to 60 seconds
3. Try to access your WordPress site and voilà! Now it should be working again
