I think you already got a reply, see
https://lore.kernel.org/cryptsetup/CACJx3YpDV2=J8rStSG685iBSW6OSEV2UaS4oRL6=qVGGSsoRvQ@mail.gmail.com/T/#t

cryptsetup is just tool to unlock disks, to handle input you need to load
all proper drivers and sw before it (in initramfs usually cryptsetup just
receive input (passphrase) from other tool, it does not handle query directly.

I am not sure if there is an easy way to do it, but this is definitely question
for your distribution. Systemd has a way how to ask external application for input,
but I have no idea if anyone use touch screen this way.
