Those were my findings as well, at least regarding arduino. U8glib has long been ported to nodemcu.
According to this http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=334026.msg2361385#msg2361385 and this http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=334026.msg2340056#msg2340056 post porting will not be that easy. And a port is not exprected in the near future (though this was 2 month ago).
Maybe I'll try the LUA path. Would be a bummer though, since I use Arduino for several other project.
EDIT:
Forum member winneymj wrote some code for interfacing with the display https://bagaloozy.wordpress.com/2015/08/31/cutting-the-cord-epg-rethinking-the-display-size-part-5/ and https://github.com/winneymj/ESP8266_SSD1322.

So I bought the same module as you bought from fleabay and I just got it.

I saw it has an SD card slot. Is it possible to use both the sdcard slot and the TFT at the same time with ESP or are we limited due to library restrictions? I have used SDcard library which I believe used SPI before

But I am second guesing if it will work with TFT, since the TFT and SDCard part have their own traces on the display
Is it as simple as putting the TFT on a different pin for Chip select?

It's your TFT !
At the left side of the picture you see the SD-card is "doubled" to the TFT-SPI. Only cs-pin must be determined ..
