Try this my friend:

 

REGEX_Match([Field1], Uppercase([Field1]),0) = -1

Since there's no function that does this, and because "=" is not case sensitive, you'll have to create a new field (say, "UPPER") where UPPER = Uppercase([your field here]).  Then Join it to itself on [your field here] = UPPER.  Join IS case sensitive, so only records that are fully uppercase will come out of the J anchor.

My solution is similar to what @mbarone described.
