Some brief searching ("cooking rice with seawater") indicates that at a minimum you can use seawater diluted with fresh water for cooking if your survival depends on it. Seawater is around 3.5% salt. For perspective, that is something on the order of a soup spoon of salt per soda can volume of water (12fl oz/355mL). Undiluted seawater suitability seems to vary by food[1][2], my cursory search didn't provide any factual specifics for rice, oatmeal, and vegetables. Some comments indicate you can boil fish in straight seawater. That's all without considering pollution and natural toxins from algae blooms. The sources I skimmed mentioned commercially sourced culinary "sea water", I would expect some amount of filtering and heat treatment.
