You need a OGR compiled with Oracle support.

http://www.holl-land.de/blog/index.php/2006/12/23/oracle-plugin-for-qgis/I took a quick look. I think that allows to browse the database for
geometry tables, select the one you'd like to add and then creates an
URI for the OGR driver and create a vector layer with it.
There's also the ogr plugin branch with also does something like that,
but for more OGR drivers (eg. mysql).
But given a Oracle enabled GDAL and knowing the URI syntax you need to
access the Oracle table/OGR layer you want, you might get away with a
simple plugin that allows to specify an URI and tries to add a vector
layer using it.
