All spaces and vertical bars in the value must be backslash-escaped,
see :help option-backslash

Try
:set stl+=%{(&bomb\ &&\ !&binary\ &&\ ((&fenc\ ==\ ""\ &&\ &enc\ =~?\
'^u')\ \|\|\ &fenc\ =~?\ '^u')?'[bom]':""}

All these escaping backslashes will disappear in the value displayed
by ":set stl?" (without the quotes of course).

Note the use of =~? '^u' to mean "anything beginning with u or U". I
also omit =1 or =0 for a boolean variable, testing respectively for
nonzero or not(nonzero).

Best regards,
Tony.
