Mitchell Marsh hit an unbeaten 86 off 51 balls, including seven sixes and three in a row off fast bowler Dale Steyn, to take his side to 282 for seven in 50 overs.
South Africa were then bowled out for 220 in 44 overs despite 126 from Faf du Plessis who scored his second consecutive century against Australia.
Australia's win came after an embarrassing defeat on Sunday to hosts Zimbabwe and a seven-wicket loss to South Africa last week.
They also picked up a bonus point for their victory, ensuring them a place in this weekend's final, when they will play the winner of South Africa's match against Zimbabwe tonight.
Standin captain George Bailey says they lost wickets at key times but Mitch helped set a competitive total on that wicket, one they could look to defend.
