the man page[1] states

duplicity verify [options] [--compare-data] [--file-to-restore
<relpath>] [--time time] source_url target_directory

that the parameter '--file-to-restore' is supported. hence it should limit verifying to the folder/file give there. if that in fact also limits the verification to those volumes said file/folder to restore is contained in when '--compare-data' is not given i don't know. but that should be easily tested by a simple trial and comparing the run times.
you may of course consult the source code as well ;)
