My 2012 Impreza ran out of oil

So a couple of days ago (Sunday) I hit a huge pothole, didn’t think too much about it since I was in a hurry. Yesterday while I was at an intersection my car just died! Thinking that maybe my battery had gotten loose for the hit I went to check it. Turns out I didn’t had any oil left, it had all gone to the oil filter and it was pooled there. Now I don’t know if I should just get a new engine or try to fix it; any suggestions?

Probably the engine is toast but...not enough info here to be sure.

If you fill it back up with oil will it start? If so what sounds does it make?

It would be hard to believe that the engine wasn't fatally damaged but ya never know until you fire it up again.

Well it doesn’t make a weird noise or anything, it starts off fine but then it dies again
