There are a few minor exceptions.
For the GRU-FOR on Latam in Y expect you would not have lounge access (unless you have mid level status)
If connecting same day or before 0600 next day at GRU why wouldn't the OP have access to oneworld J lounges in GRU based on the inbound long haul J flight even if the OP has no status?

oneworld lounge access for First Class or Business Class customers

Connecting between oneworld marketed and operated flights:
  • First and Business Class customers connecting on the same day of travel, or before 6am the following day, can access the lounge when travelling between an international long haul (a oneworld international long haul flight is defined as an international flight marketed and operated by any oneworld carrier with a scheduled flight time longer than 5 hours) and an international short haul or domestic flight (and vice-versa).
  • Lounge access will be determined on the international long haul ticketed flight (either First of Business Class) regardless of the ticketed class of travel on the international short haul or domestic flight.
  • You must be prepared to show your boarding pass or itinerary showing travel in First or Business class on the international long haul flight, in order to access the lounge before your international short haul or domestic flight.
