Did you look into the methods

undefined clearObjectStyleOverrides ()

and

undefined applyObjectStyle (using:ObjectStyle, [clearingOverrides:Boolean=Boolean], [clearingOverridesThroughRootObjectStyle:Boolean=Boolean])

Look at the method details from the following link

clearingOverridesThroughRootObjectStyle. Am not clear how do i use this method when i apply object style

Many objects/pageItems have the property "overridden". So, you can check if the object is overridden before applying an override. This line of code below checks if a pageItem has been overridden, and if it hasn't, it overrides it.  

if ( !pageItem.overidden ) {

    pageItem.applyObjectStyle("Style to Apply", true);

}
