Engine Fire???

Hi,

In case of engine fire, the engine is shutoff and the fire extinguisher is used.
Can the pilot restart and operate the failed engine if there a need of this engine: let's say the second engine in twinjet failed also (so shutoff) during an extended diversion and it is no longer able to deliver thrust, hydraulic & electric power

Why engine oil is not shutoff in case of engine fire as fuel, hydraulic, air, electricity? is engine oil not flammable?

Thank you.
Best regards.
