She is Chosen, off the top of my head I don't recall anything about the True Power being Male only. Similar to the idea of using Saidar to wrap the hands in air/spirit to block actual touching, what if she did this using the true power with the DO's permission? It wouldn't be detectable by any of the sisters in the tower just other Chosen and Rand who recognize the signs.
Interesting idea, however Demandred claimed that the ability to wield True Power is now limited to Moridin alone. Mesaana has also failed repeatedly, first in disobeying the DO directly by refusing to come to the cleansing, and now in allowing the BA to be decimated. So I am not all that sure if the DO would have allowed Mesaana to wield TP, even to save herself from the oath. Though if he did then this would be a good way for Mesaana to escape.
Though this did bring up another point. We know that TP is so similar to the OP that you can use it with very little training. Rand used Balefire with TP the very first time he wielded it, so it seems likely that it is composed of 5 powers like OP is.
So what would happen if you used a TP weave of spirit to touch the oath rod. Would the fact thats its spirit mean that it would work despite being TP. Would it do nothing? Or would it somehow corrupt the OR and cause it to malfunction.
How did Mesaana beat the Oath Rod?

That isn't tricking the oath rod, the way I'm understanding his answer. That's tricking humans *NM*

As mentioned above, your theory is not about defeating Oath Rod.

Perhaps she pressed, and held the on/off switch, so that the Oaths never triggered? *NM*

Or she didn't swear on it, because she's a servant.

A true power invisible glove is better than a one power invisible glove. *NM*

I doubt Mesaana stands high enough to have TP access right now. She's probably the lowest FS. *NM*

Yeah I realize what I presented was kinda the opposite of what I was going for.

I think the OR is tied to a channelers connection to the OP and nothing else

I'm fairly certain that the ability can't be sensed until they are very close to touching
