I think these kinds of hypothetical battles are less about literal resources (eg: money) and more about leadership and perception.
Google: we're nice guys, don't censor china!
Oracle: we've been around since 1977. we've been to war before, and we'll win again.
Also the fallout could hurt Google far more than Oracle regarding market cap from public perception. I think people entrench enterprise stuff like Oracle as brutal, and Google as fluffy. IMHO.
