He shouted "racist and provocative remarks" towards officers and called asylum seekers in the hotel "child killers", Sheffield Crown Court heard at his sentencing.
A spokesperson for the Prison Service said Lynch, who had been at HMP Moorland in Doncaster, died on Saturday.
"As with all deaths in custody, the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman will investigate," the spokesperson added.
"Family man" Lynch, who had suffered a heart attack earlier in the year and had also been diagnosed with diabetes, had gone to the hotel to protest against immigration, his defence barrister said.

A grandfather who was found dead in prison after being jailed for taking part in rioting outside a hotel housing asylum seekers died as a result of hanging, an inquest has heard
Members of his family joined the inquest by video link, with his son, Casey, asking a number of questions about the investigation.
Some of his concerns included “whether my dad should've been there in the first place", as well as why two previous suicide attempts by his father were not "taken seriously".
The coroner told him that he and his family will have input in the investigation and will be able to share their concerns in other hearings.
Det Sgt Gareth Gent, of South Yorkshire Police, told the inquest Lynch was last seen alive on Friday 18 October during a roll-call at 19:00 GMT.
He was found to be unresponsive and not breathing in his cell by staff the next morning.
Mr Gent said CPR was carried out by officers until paramedics arrived, with Lynch pronounced dead at 06:42.
He said investigations so far suggested he had been alone in his cell when he was found.

In Episode 3 of The News at Ben, I’m addressing two urgent issues that British citizens need to know about: the shocking revelations on the Southport terror case and the damage inflicted by Rachel Reeves’ latest budget. Just a day before the budget announcement, we learned that the Southport killer possessed al-Qaeda materials and biological weaponry—yet back in July, those raising concerns were labeled “far-right.” Why were these crucial details kept from the public?
Then there’s Reeves’ budget, which has done nothing but target the private sector. With increased national insurance for employers, hikes in the minimum wage, and skyrocketing business rates, this budget is set to cripple British industry. The private sector, schools, charities, and even farmers will feel the squeeze, while the public sector remains protected. The question is, how long until the UK faces a financial crisis of its own making? Dive into today’s episode for the full breakdown.
