Why does oil in a bowl of water get repelled when washing liquid is dropped on it?
The oil is not repelled. It is floating on the surface of the water as a thin film. Water has very high surface tension, but when soap or detergent is added to water that surface tension suddenly drops. The water surface now contracts like a punctured rubber sheet toward the remaining area of high surface tension, dragging the oil film floating on its surface with it.

The density is important; for floating an object must have a density under the water density (1 g/cm3).
What reaction produces a floating film on waters surface?
It's not a reaction, it is either the difference in density or the effect of the surface tension of the water
