BAT files are appropiate for iterating over the contents of a directory with the FOR command. See HELP FOR and HELP SET and try this

for /r %%a in (net*.inf) do (
  echo XCOPY %%~pa*.* \destination
)

Repeat the same for oem*.infor any other specifications you need.

After testing, remove the ECHO and adjust the XCOPY parameters to your appropiate requirements.

EDIT: per OPs comments, changed %%~fa to %%~pa to copy the complete folder content,
