you can override this file

app/design/frontend/Vendor/Theme/Magento_CatalogSearch/layout/catalogsearch_result_index.xml

and add this code

<referenceContainer name="sidebar.main" remove="true" />
<referenceBlock name="catalogsearch.leftnav" remove="true" />
<referenceContainer name="sidebar.additional" remove="true" />
