Pull up the error codes, and perform calibration.

The throttle body needs cleaning. It has some carbon build up, and when the battery went dead the computer lost its learned values, one of which is base throttle position. Now its reset back to factory specs, not accounting for a dirty throttle body. Seen it a million times
SOURCE: engine skipping/misfiring, engine light flashing
Drive it into a dark place, or wait till dark. When it's running poorly, see if you can see any spark flying around. It sounds like plug wires.

95 toyota may have an early obd2 diagnostics,which started for all cars in 96,which means it can track a cylinder misfire,when ck light flashes it can mean multiple misfire detected causing serious loss of power,you can try going to autozone they do free ck engine light code reading ,tell them you may have obd2 plug according to web,let me know codes if you get lucky.with AZ its hit or miss

SOURCE: Oil light in 1999 Toyota camry comes on when idling.
bad to worn out oil pump or excessive oil passage clearances that allowing more oil to pass thru them at a lower pressure due to the bigger opening. It can be a sign of an emminant engine failure due to oil starvation.
The information below was complied by me, it explains what causes the check engine light to come on and the process of finding the cause.
When the Check Engine light (or Service Engine Soon) is turned on, the systems computer control unit (called the PCM) has sensed a fault in the electronic controls of the engine and/or the emission system. When this happens you will seldom feel the car engine run any different. There are about 200 possible system faults (the gas cap is just one of them) that turn the Check Engine light on, to know what has developed a problem you must have the system tested, this is called an OBD2 fault code test, Kragen/Oriley and Autozone parts stores (USA only) do this testing for free.
Low Fluid levels do not turn on the CEL
