I do apologize. I stumbled upon an even simpler workaround a while ago, but forgot to reply back to this thread.
Simply uninstalling the Intel Arc drivers using DDU and reinstalling them will fix the issue. It's possible that just reinstalling the drivers with "Clean install" selected may also solve the issue. Still, the fact that something in the EA app is causing a BSOD should be a red flag to EA developers, but they don't seem to care much. It's their own app...
@Gargamel314 Which version you reinstalled ? I tried to reinstall the same drivers but it didn't work. I managed to downgrade it instead until EA fixes the issue.
@Whyreless4501 seems to work just fine. I'm trying something else though. I DDU'd and opened the EA app without any GPU driver installed (you can't uninstall EA app in its bugged out state).

***EDIT***
OK that seemed to work. You CAN access EA App with no GPU driver and it will load just fine. So Uninstalling it and reinstalling it, now the app loads just fine with version 4514 installed. I didn't have to reinstall my games either. SOMETHING gets corrupted in that app and the A770 does not like it. At least the fix seems workable. so...

Uninstall EA App completely with basic Microsoft GPU driver
Reinstall GPU Driver
Reinstall EA App.
