I think in this case the rich would just funnel their donations through NGOs and other types of "non-partisan" organisations. To an extent, this is already the model they are using.

My thinking is that "non-partisan" should count for nothing; no organization, period, gets to donate to political campaigns or organizations. So no NGO shell games, though you're probably right that there will be some whack-a-mole to enforce it. That shouldn't dissuade us from placing serious obstacles between wealth and power though.

The main issue would be that a lot of these de facto political organisations masquerade as "social" organisations. A lot of "charities" that are run by far left activists really don't look the part if you are just going off of the name. With that said, if you can draw the boundaries of what constitutes political activity, it may be possible to have this type of crackdown.
