You can’t.

“nginx -V” to see how this instance was built.

[Installing nginx](http://nginx.org/en/docs/install.html) for how to build a fresh instance  
with the modules you want and without the modules you don’t.

“./configure --help” for, among other things, a list of the available  
distributed modules.

Good luck with it,
