As you can see, it uses 0.0156250 as the weight of all k-points. I
can't figure out how to obtain this value.

How much did you try? You have 64 k-points, the weights are all equal, what could possibly be this value? Anyhow, here is the magic:

1/64=0.015625

It said that for a non-scf calculation, weights do not affect the
results. If so, why they still set weights for the k-points in the
example I mentioned above?

Because one could go into a mode, in the future, where the wannier code uses only the points in the irreducible wedge, or at the very least it uses time reversal.

Any hints will be highly appreciated.
