Have you tried following?
ver -_pa
See ShellPkg\Library\UefiShellLevel3CommandsLib\Ver.c (snippet below)
//
// implementation specific support for displaying processor architecture
//
if (ShellCommandLineGetFlag(Package, L"-_pa")) {
ShellPrintEx(-1, -1, L"%d\r\n", sizeof(UINTN)==sizeof(UINT64)?64:32);
}
Best Regards,
Allen

#ifdef MDE_CPU_X64
#ifdef MDE_CPU_IA32
The DXE Core uses the EFI_IMAGE_MACHINE_TYPE_SUPPORTED() macro. It tells you if
the PE/COFF image type is supported.
The image types from the PE/COFF header are:
///
/// PE32+ Machine type for IA32 UEFI images.
///
#define EFI_IMAGE_MACHINE_IA32 0x014C
///
/// PE32+ Machine type for IA64 UEFI images.
///
#define EFI_IMAGE_MACHINE_IA64 0x0200
///
/// PE32+ Machine type for EBC UEFI images.
///
#define EFI_IMAGE_MACHINE_EBC 0x0EBC
///
/// PE32+ Machine type for X64 UEFI images.
///
#define EFI_IMAGE_MACHINE_X64 0x8664
///
/// PE32+ Machine type for ARM mixed ARM and Thumb/Thumb2 images.
///
#define EFI_IMAGE_MACHINE_ARMTHUMB_MIXED 0x01C2
///
/// PE32+ Machine type for AARCH64 A64 images.
///
#define EFI_IMAGE_MACHINE_AARCH64 0xAA64

Want excitement?
Manually upgrade your production database.
When you want reliability, choose Perforce.
Perforce version control. Predictably reliable.
