No.  There is no such threshold in Open Firmware.

Open Firmware does not check the state of charge when assessing
whether there is enough power for reflashing firmware.

Instead, Open Firmware relies on the battery status flags provided by
the embedded controller:

- external power must be present,

- a battery must be present,

- the battery low status bit must be cleared.

Therefore on your SKU296 the battery low status bit must have been
set.

Can you provide power logs from the duration of the olpc-update?

You can find further information in the embedded controller source,
for the bit name bat_low
