The last 32bit laptop CPU was produced nearly 20 years ago.
Further, there are still several LTS linux distros (including the likes of Ubuntu and Debian) which don't have the rust requirement and won't until the next LTS. 24.04 is supported until 2029. Meaning you are talking about a 25 year old CPU at that point.
And even if you continue to need support. Debian based distros aren't the only ones on the plant. You can pick something else if it really matters.

15 years max; I can easily find documentation of Intel shipping Atom chips without 64-bit support in 2010, though I haven't found a good citation for when exactly that ended.
