This issue, at least with respect to the iPhone 7, isn't related to iOS 14. The audio IC on your iPhone is failing and is the cause of the issues you're having with the microphone. This is unfortunately, not an issue that Apple offers to repair, and you will need to either find a third party repair shop that can do board level repair, or invest in a new phone.
