Have you looked into UAC settings for standard users? Something like this - https://rahuljindalmyit.blogspot.com/2021/03/intune-uac-elevation-prompt-behavior.html
Intune Policy to Block Installation of .msi, .exe, and PowerShell Scripts for Standard Users
Dear All,
Greetings!
I am seeking your guidance in creating an Intune policy that restricts the installation of .msi, .exe files, and the execution of PowerShell scripts for standard users, while allowing such actions for users with administrative privileges.
If available, I would appreciate it if you could share the corresponding .xml configuration file or a reference template that can be imported into Intune.
Thank you for your support and cooperation.
Best Regards,
Ganesh Karki

Along with UAC, try exploring Endpoint Privilege Management which could be of help in your particular scenario.
