Looks like powdery mildew! I would pinch off most infected leaves and spray the rest (front and back) with neem oil. Good luck! I know how devastating this is! ❤️

Definitely, powdery mildew. Oxalis plants are susceptible to rust as well. Avoid wetting the leaves while water. Ensure the soil is well draining.
