At least on Linux, there is a script 'oolatex' that does a pretty good job. I'm using Debian and, for some reason, oolatex is not in the execution path but is located at /usr/share/tex4ht/oolatex. I had a LaTeX book length manuscript (about 700 pages) that converted reasonably well, but I haven't tried the Org -> LaTeX -> LibreOffice procedure yet.
