Only option really is to prevent auto archive and file > archive via group policy for outlook.

As long as you have an Online Archive enabled, the corresponding AutoArchive settings in Outlook are automatically disabled.

Or disable the Export/Import button altogether (ID 2577): https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/office/office-2013-resource-kit/cc179143(v=office...)
