The disk contents was probably restored just fine, but, in order to automatically boot from fixed (ie. non-removable) media, you must add a Boot#### non-volatile UEFI variable (= a boot option) and reference it in the BootOrder variable. See "3.1.1 Boot Manager Programming" in the UEFI 2.3.1+errC specification. These variables are stored in system flash, and all UEFI OS installers (eg. Anaconda for RHEL, Fedora, CentOS) must set them. I assume clonezilla doesn't save them in the backup image.
