Oil doesn't do "coolling" per se;

When an "oil cooler" is added to an engine, it simply increases the
total surface area of the engine assembly that the cooling airflow can
interact with.

These two statements don't quite jibe, do they?

The oil cooler removes heat from the engine and the medium that conveys heat
to the cooler is oil. I don't see any difference between that and how water
cools a water-cooled engine.
