From docs: object_exists
"This function returns whether an object with the specified index exists or not. Note that this checks to see if an object is present in the resource tree, and not actually in the game room. For that you should use the function instance_exists."

TLDR
object_exists - checks for the object in the resource tree
instance_exists - checks for the object in the current room
