Cortex does. In the architecture there are 255 levels which
can be broken at a bit boundary to main levels and sublevels,
e.g. 32 main levels with 8 sublevels each (depending on the
chip implementor's decision).

There is an exception (internally triggered interrupt) for
thread switching (PENDSV), and it simplifies the core thread
switching when run on lowest priority.

The Cortex interrupt mechanism can handle nested interrupts
with plain C functions, and the nesting mechanism is up and
running in normal case. An interrupt handler has to disable
higher-priority interrupts if it wants to be alone.
