Per a StackOverflow post, the reasons for this are detailed here:

Is there some reason you would expect a 64-bit Visual Studio port before a Linux port?

The only advantage I can see to staying 32-bit is that Windows on ARM64 only has an x86 emulator, not x86_64.
I think there’s a 0% chance of a Linux port: VS Code is the cross-platform/future dev environment for Microsoft. But I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that a 64-bit Visual Studio is coming soon to Windows.
