As you say, ending in doha instead of cairo meets xONEx rules and so in theory you can request a reroute for $125 adjusted for any change in taxes/surcharges
Your challenge is that a combination of incompetence and intransigence means qantas is often not playing the rules. Ie your issue isn't with oneworld or the xONEx rules but with what you can convince an erratic qantas yo do. Its hard to know but I think there is a thread dedicated to that.
