Try cleaning it again, that'll answer the question for you.

grab a multimeter and check the voltages coming from the TPS. Your TPS might need to be replaced if you have already cleaned the IACV multiple times.

Check for vacuum leaks, with the engine running spray brake cleaner around hoses near the throttle body, intake area, don't over due it, if you hear a change in sound as it runs chances are that is your problem, of it it dies.
