Can't say I have any resolution to the issue but couple of comments:
1. What year is the car?
2. How many miles?
3. Did anything trigger this event? How long has this been going on?
4. OEM oil filter?
5. A video would be helpful however not sure how much more I'd be driving it until you get this sorted.
Maybe consider getting proper oil pressure gauge to see what's going on. That would be my next step while also shopping for a replacement engine. That is shuts off is not good.

Have you tried going to thicker grade oil? Like 10W-40?
Just a thought...

The car's RPM drops down far enough to trip the oil pressure light. That's not necessarily a problem with the oil or the bearings.
His oil light isn't on during normal driving.
Stalling a car will trip the oil pressure light.
So...fix the RPM drop issue...which is likely a IACV issue. Clean it or replace it.

Perhaps different sending units operate at slightly different PSI. My Oil Light doesn't come on, until the engine has been off for awhile. Like 5 secs after turning engine off.
