Actually, it doesn't. You can install SQL*Developer which contains Oracle JDBC driver and can connect to almost anything newer than Oracle 8i. You can also install Instant*Client which is completely free and also includes both JDBC and ODBC clients. Instant client contains SQL*Plus. You can also install various open source GUI stuff on top of the instant client. Most notable open source, GUI tools on top of the instant client are DBeaver-CE, SQLSquirrel, Eclipse, DBD::Oracle and Tora. SQL*Developer and SQLcl are free but not open source. I assure you that all of the above can run Oracle queries.
