I personally feel that what happend between Neo and Smith was not much different than what a virus scan on your computer does. By absorbing Smith, Neo gave the machines all the code and abilities that Smith had gained over the course of the trilogy. With that knowledge, they were able to quarentine the virus Smith just as Norton would clean up your system. Before this point, the machines had not learned or evolved to the level Smith had. He took on the trait of growth from the humans, which put him in his virus-like state.
Afterwards, any program that had elements of the code from the virus Smith, would have been quarentined and cleansed. Therefore, the Oracle is back just as she was before.
