I have multiple domains and multiple domains using SSL certs running under nginx. All domains are basically using the exact same config, substituting for names of course, except for the HTTPS-enabled domains which I have the SSL settings specified. Between these two domains the config is also the same for SSL with exception of file names for keys and such. Each website is also running on it's own dedicated IP. (all of them)
All my non-SSL sites are working just fine. I can access them without any problems. All my SSL sites get a 521 error from CloudFlare. (Strict SSL is on, just fyi)
One of the domains I had previously set up had been working just fine. Even if I remove the other SSL-enabled domain it still doesn't work now. The only config change I made was adding a new domain that was also using a SSL cert. When I test the config with nginx it says everything is fine. When I check netstat I can see those IPs in the listening over 443. I don't see any errors in /var/log/syslog or nginx's access and error logs.

Answer
Ok, so here's what the problem ended up being. I assumed that if you enabled Full SSL (Strict) that CloudFlare would always connect to your website over HTTPS. Obviously that's not how it works. If you try to visit a site using HTTP CloudFlare will still connect to your server over HTTP.
All I had to do was add a page rule on each domain to force the redirection to HTTPS.
So it wasn't nginx at all, it was just me being dumb.
