How to identify RSASSA-PSS from rsaEncryption OID? Following the RFC 8446 it states that:


  RSASSA-PSS RSAE algorithms:  Indicates a signature algorithm using
        RSASSA-PSS [RFC8017] with mask generation function 1.  The digest
        used in the mask generation function and the digest being signed
        are both the corresponding hash algorithm as defined in [SHS].
        The length of the Salt MUST be equal to the length of the output
        of the digest algorithm.  If the public key is carried in an X.509
        certificate, it MUST use the rsaEncryption OID [RFC5280].


And from RFC 4055 it's stated that: 


  The rsaEncryption object identifier continues to identify the subject
     public key when the RSA private key owner does not wish to limit the
     use of the public key exclusively to either RSASSA-PSS or RSAES-OAEP.
     In this case, the rsaEncryption object identifier MUST be used in the
     algorithm field within the subject public key information, and the
     parameters field MUST contain NULL.


It got me confused when trying to verify certificate signature, how can I know which algorithm was used if the OID is rsaEncryption and furthermore with what hash? (PSS or not)

Because the params field is NULL, and there's only the OID info, so from where can I derive the relevant information such as signature and hash algorithm with it?
There are two different identifiers in a certificate, the algorithm of the public key for the certificate and the algorithm of the signature from the issuer.  The two don't have to even be the same algorithm family (e.g. RSA CA certs can sign ECDSA certs, and vice versa).

In the following certificate parse structure the algorithm identifiers starting at offset 24 and 529 (certificate.tbsCertificate.signature and certificate.signatureAlgorithm) identify that the issuing authority signed the certificate with RSA PKCS#1 with SHA-1 (id-sha1WithRSAEncryption).

The algorithm identifier at offset 371 (certificate.tbsCertificate.subjectPublicKeyInfo.algorithm) identifies that the public key contained within this certificate is an RSA key (id-rsaEncryption).

If the issuing authority had signed the certificate using RSASSA-PSS then the certificate.signatureAlgorithm and certificate.tbcCertificate.signature values would have the RSA-PSS object identifier (1.2.840.113549.1.1.10) and their parameters would convey the PSS data.
