During the four grant types of Oauth,
  1. authorization code: RO knows the authorization code upon which 
access-tokens-to-be-revoked are issued 
  2. implicite flow: RO knows the access-tokens-to-be-revoked
  3. password and client credential types: RO has no way of knowing access 
tokens. 

So,IMO,  it is not proper for RO to revoke an each access token 
individually,
rather it could revoke some access tokens by specifying conditions, such 
as client_id, time_period, scope
