Is “search it up” much different from a similar phrase “search for it”? The structure of the original quote is “imperative verb, direct object, adverb” but I wouldn’t call that a change in grammar so much as a change in diction.

It’s adapted from “look it up”. Or maybe more specifically, it’s “look it up using internet search”.
