The surface appears to be oxidized or hazy. I have tried to polish the surface with rubbing compound with no success.

Go with what "ihavetried...." says. If that does not work you will need to find a shop that sells Micro Mesh sandpaper. It comes in a kit and the grain goes down to 12,000. It will bring back the shine. They actually use this stuff to remove scratches from aircraft windshields.
You should be able to find Micro Mesh online, or in a high end woodworking shop.
Good Luck,

Becareful using abrasive things on the marble. It will scratch it. Tomato juice is very acidy and it may have etched it as brought up earlier. Run your hand over it and see if it is smooth or has a slight roughness to it to determine that.

Get automotive rubbing compound and rub it then switch to tooth paste to get a final polishing. Then apply a good paste wax and buff several applications may be necessary.

You may have acid etched the surface. No real return from that situation.

if you have extra one laying around replace them because you will never bring back the gloss it once had , the tomatoes have lot of acidity and it hatched it
