The below stated on above page from oracle

A subquery can contain another subquery. Oracle Database
imposes no limit on the number of subquery levels in the
FROM clause of the top-level query. You can nest up to 255
levels of subqueries in the WHERE clause.

How many levels can subqueries be nested in a FROM clause?..

Answer / slokh

FROM clause
A subquery can also be found in the FROM clause. These are
called inline views.

For example:

select suppliers.name, subquery1.total_amt
from suppliers,
(select supplier_id, Sum(orders.amount) as total_amt
from orders
group by supplier_id) subquery1,
where subquery1.supplier_id = suppliers.supplier_id;

In this example, we've created a subquery in the FROM
clause as follows:

(select supplier_id, Sum(orders.amount) as total_amt
from orders
group by supplier_id) subquery1

This subquery has been aliased with the name subquery1.
This will be the name used to reference this subquery or
any of its fields.

Limitations:

Oracle allows an unlimited number of subqueries in the FROM
clause.
