You'll find the compatibility matrix for Liferay DXP here. Liferay CE (out of the box) only works on Open Source databases, but Antonio Musarra has written a community plugin for Oracle. I'm just not sure which version it works on.

Oracle support definitely doesn't come with Liferay CE - last time I've looked Oracle wasn't open source emoticon
Search for "Antonio Musarra Liferay Oracle" to find his plugin and installation instructions

I am bit confused, are you talking about Oracle support for Liferay CE or else,  Is Liferay CE works with Oracle 12 or not ?

Liferay CE only works with Open Source databases, Oracle isn't Open Source, so no, Liferay CE doesn't work with Oracle.
Antonio Musarra has contributed some work and provides a plugin that implements this access, so if you add it to the installation, you can use Oracle with Liferay CE. I just don't know about the supported versions for Oracle.

Yes.
But please note that you need to use at least
MySQL 5.7
or
Maria DB 10.2
