The funny thing about bikes is that the seat tube measurement is nearly irrelevant, yet it is still the "standard" size measurement. I say irrelevant only because the seat tube doesn't dictate the seat height unless it's in the down direction.
Try this calculator and see what size the eddy fit will give you.
My wife is 5'8', but has a true 31" cycling inseam. It puts her on a 54, which is what she rides and is very comfortable on. The geometry chart for her bike shows the top tube length is ideal for her.

Excellent! I was just going to say try the competitive cyclist fit calculator and see what it says.
With a true 32 inch inseam, a 54 might be right. Even if the OP needs a long stem, that's fine too. As others have said riding a smaller frame rather than a larger has benefits.
