Increased oil consumption

My car has always burned oil for the 40k miles I've owned it. Usually around 1 quart per 5k miles. However around 5k miles ago this has increased to 2-3 quarts and seems I'm topping it off way too much. My AOS did bomb about 1k miles ago which I replaced but I am still going through oil.

I've researched and the vast majority of Boxsters do not burn oil. So this definitely isn't normal. Has anybody experienced big oil consumption increases due to something else other than the AOS?
