You may need to remove space after tilde symbol, after that
everything works as expected:

map $uri $lowercase {
        ~^(.+)$ /$1;
}

server {
        listen 80;
        location / {
                return 200 "lowercase=$lowercase\n";
        }
}

Test:

% curl 127.1:80/foobar
lowercase=//foobar
