A July 16, 1921 article in The Moving Picture World gave the names of the four movie theaters then operating in Oil City, and the Majestic was not among them, so it had either closed or been renamed by that time. The four houses were the Venango, the Princess, the Lyric, and the Temple.
Also, I came across an article from the January 28, 2021 Oil City Derick (I can only see a small part of it as it’s behind their pay wall) and it gives the address of the Majestic as 102 Seneca Street.
If that address is correct, this must have been demolished. The entire block is the massive Oil City National Bank, from 1926.
This theater was open by 1913. It was located in the Oil Exchange, a large 3 story brick building constructed sometime before 1886. The building is still retail and offices on the 1906 map. The maps show the address as 106.
