rustup does not know about / support armel, and fails to build there:
error: failed to run custom build command for `rustup v1.27.1 (/build/reproducible-path/rustup-1.27.1)`

Thus, it should not be built there.

This has actually been fixed in the latest upstream snapshot of rustup:

Compiling reqwest v0.12.12
Compiling rustls-platform-verifier v0.5.0
Compiling download v1.28.1 (/home/glaubitz/rustup/download)
Finished `release` profile [optimized] target(s) in 5m 17s
(sid_armel-dchroot)***@amdahl:~/rustup$ ./target/release/rustup-init --version
rustup-init 1.28.1+10 (7870fd11d 2025-03-15)
(sid_armel-dchroot)***@amdahl:~/rustup$

It's the typical mistake of maintaining your own architecture list instead
of checking a canonical resource for that which will always have the latest
list of supported targets.

Either way, just wait for the next upstream release and this will be fixed.
