On a 2020 MBP, the Windows installer is created in/on an internal partition called OSXRESERVED. When Windows installation is completed, you will get an entry for Windows in the System EFI Partition. You will see both entries, if BCA fails to delete OSXRESERVED partition. If you reboot in this state using Alt/Option, you will see the Installer, if OSXRESERVED is chosen, otherwise the Windows partition, if the installation was successful. You may have a partially installed Windows.

From macOS Terminal, post the output of

On the last screen, if your Mac is not connected to the network using a wired connection, then you will need to choose a wireless network to connect to the network, so you can access Apple servers for the Internet Recovery images.
