I've never actually counted! It's a difficult one to count as well as there are more individual keywork parts compared to the number of touchpieces.
Just counting the touchpieces gives up to 10 on the top joint, up to 10 on the lower joint, plus 6 fingerplates on a full Gillet conservatoire system oboe fitted with a thumbplate and LH C# key.
But that doesn't include all the other keys, linkages, articulated keys and vent keys remotely operated.
