There's no effective short term fix unless Portugal wants to chase out of the country tourists and foreign investors. Only half effective measure might be a high taxation to discourage real estate investments and AirB&b incomes. Same has happened all around Europe.

Affordable housing problem is not just a Portuguese problem. Most developed countries have the same or a bigger problem. The embracing of neoliberalism and the myth that the "free market" will solve all problems is greatly responsible for this global problem. Governments must return to building "public housing" which will not only provide affordable and sufficient housing but, it will also benefit from the job creation and economic development created by the public investment.

You should vote for a different government that doesn't allow foreign purchases, not complain to foreigners

I am afraid it's too late. Same in so many other countries, although in Lisbon the problem is really extreme. No solution, it's sad but locals who cannot afford living in Lisbon (and Porto) need to move out of the city.
