Tiran,
One way replication here in Data Guard is, redo/arch were transferred from primary to standby.
Of course *physical* standby database is an exact image copy of primary database, Because whatever the redo is generated and the same chanegs will be applied on standby database. Even if you configure redo transport from standby to primary it wont accept incoming redo either, it rejects because it is already an primary database.

BTW, You can say one to many(standby) :)

There is another option is Cascaded standby, You can configure transport/replication from standby to standby to avoid more work on Primary database. this should helps you

Thanks & Regards,
Nassyam Basha.
