Somehow I got cooking oil on my favorite comforter and cant get the smell out. I lost everything in the Carr fire and cant get a new one for awhile. I cant just throw it away. Any suggestions on removing the oil stain and smell out are appreciated.

Maybe a laundry mat will have a large enough machine. You can also put it outside on the washing line and spray it with Fabreze to freshening it up.
Dawn dishwashing liquid applied directly where the oil is.
use dawn to wash the blanket, but do not use a lot in the washer.
just a couple drops. it will get grease out. if the smell is still in there.
was in a product called nokout. it is on line and is the best at knocking out smells
in fabric, wood, plastic etc. i use it on a lot of dif items. if i am frying and my curtains smell like fried food, i used it on them as well.
Pour at least a cup of vinegar in the first rinse cycle of your washer. The vinegar should cut the smell and the grease.
Sam's Club sells a product called Odo-Ban which is quite good at neutralizing smells.
Also, have you tried scrubbing the stained area with Fels Naptha Bar soap in cool water?
