This should work:

location / {
  if ($request_method = POST) {
   rewrite ^/(.*)$ /post_redirect/$1 last;
  }
}

location ~ ^/post_redirect/(.*)$ {
  internal;
  proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
  set $proxy_url http://foo.bar:8085/$1;
  if ($args) {
    set $proxy_url http://foo.bar:8085/$1?$args;
  }
  proxy_pass $proxy_url;
}

Since rewrite is guaranteed to work without side-effects
inside if blocks, the safest approach would be to first
use rewrite inside the if block (with last) to change the
URI to an internal URI and then handle the rest inside
the internal URI location block.
