I'm not aware of any QGIS plan yet. I'll ask on the QGIS dev-ML in the next

"Microsoft to drop support for Windows 10 on 32-bit systems":

Microsoft has stated that future versions of Windows 10, starting with the
May 2020 Update, will no longer be available as 32-bit builds on new OEM
computers.

all in all a good moment to phase out winGRASS 32bit versions.
