It gets real close to freezing up in the airplanes and vehicles used in the Arctic and Antarctic weather. I think its molecules can't compress enough to totally stop all movement. It can freeze if the temperature is low enough.

Oil has a lower freezing point than water, so in most household conditions, oil will not freeze when mixed with tap water. The oil's composition and properties prevent it from solidifying easily, even when exposed to low temperatures.

oil density is lower than water so oil not freez in water

IMPROVING ANSWER:

Surface tension: Just as adding oil to boiling water helps it not to "boil over" it also helps in preventing freezing over. Depending on the percentage of water to oil it is possible for water with oil to freeze.
