 But did you also install /micropython/ itself?

... and if you did, are you invoking it? Micropython is not a module for
regular Python, it is a separate limited language interpreter optimized for
use on microcontrollers.

 A search for "ssd1327 raspberry pi" leads to
https://luma-oled.readthedocs.io/en/latest/intro.html


FYI: from what I can tell, if the Adafruit library
https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_SSD1327/releases/tag/1.0.0
can be used, you'll have to install the Adafruit blinka library to provide
the CircuitPython interface API.

 As for the lack of PyPi availability...
