Quick Base, as with most internet pages, does its best to fit the report onto the screen size of the user and the zoom level of the browser.

This_Column_Header_will_not Wrap
ie use underscores and then Quick Base will not be able to find a suitable way to wrap.
You can also set certain fields type not to wrap, in terms of the data .

A report will will tend to expand as wide as it needs to to reduce wrapping, but there is not a way to make a report get needlessly wider.
