This can be done in or out of emacs.
I prefer the 'below-emacs-level' (when it works)
On linux one needs to set a compose key and then know
(the few) elements of
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GtkComposeTable
that one most needs.
Dunno about mac. There must be something similar¹
¹ For some strange reason this ¹ does not work in emacs
At the bash prompt Compose+s+1 works
oe is just Compose+o+e (in sequence) and it works in and out of emacs

Excuse my ignorance, which language this ligature belongs to?
Maybe setting the input method (M-x set-input-method) to that language
may help, i.e. using german-postfix as input method allows writing ß
by pressing s and then z (an help is displayed in the message line),
with spanish-postfix ¡ is made pressing ! and then /.

The question was: the keyboard is sending this letter, why isn't emacs
displaying it? And the answer was: emacs actually did not get the
letter, there was another system-level process that was intercepting
it. Removing that process fixed the issue.

Glad to hear that your problem is gone.
Anyway, as an emergency tool, the input method "french-postfix" allows
to enter œ by typing o and then /.
