The review follows the shock nomination of British actress Andrea Riseborough for her performance in a film that has collected just US$27,000 at the box office.
Hollywood's film academy said on Friday it was reviewing this year's campaigns for Oscar nominations, a day after a media report raised questions about the surprise nod for British actress Andrea Riseborough.
Media newsletter Puck reported on Thursday that the unexpected nomination had sparked questions about whether an aggressive campaign for Riseborough had violated lobbying rules set by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. The review also aims"to inform us whether changes to the guidelines may be needed in a new era of social media and digital communication", the statement said.
Puck reported that the wife of the film director, actress Mary McCormack, and friends had"emailed and called tonnes of members of the Academy's actors branch, begging them to see the little-watched alcoholic drama and post online about Riseborough's searing performance".Representatives for McCormack and Riseborough did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
