There are no guarantees LAN will stay with Oneworld. I guess you've missed the proposal Star made last December and the ongoing discussions since then. Where LAN ends up is very much up in the air.

LAN is a member of Oneworld and TAM is a member of Star Alliance. Is anything changing?
We deeply value the alliance relationships we have built. In the short term, there will be no changes regarding our alliance partners. Continue to book and fly on alliance partners as you would today. After the transaction is completed, LATAM would evaluate the best alliance options for the combined carrier group.
