I would do a compression test. Then squirt oil into the cylinders, if it comes up a bit it is a sign the rings are worn out. Which you probably know anyway. Likely it is rings as it looks like you are getting a lot of oil up in the combustion chamber. Other than an overhaul the only thing you could try is a couple of ranges hotter plug to try and keep them burned off. And keep the engine running on the warm side of normal too. Like 200 degrees. A warm engine will keep the plugs cleaner than a cold one.
