Does salt melt ice faster than oil?

Yes, salt dissolves in water and when it dissolves, some heat is produced that causes more ice to melt and dissolve more salt. Salt lowers the freezing point of water so the water that melted from the heat of solution will not re-freeze. Salt has little effect on the ice on a road, initially. Pressure on the ice from traffic causes the ice to melt. If salt crystals have been sprinkled on the ice the effect is improved. Oil, on the other hand, does not dissolve in water to any effective extent at all. It would have no effect on lowering the freezing point of water. It could insulate the ice from being heated by warm air or if the oil is very dark in color, it could absorb heat from solar radiation and melt the ice. That effect is what causes ice to melt when soot and cinders are sprinkled on it.
