With "Oppenheimer" receiving 13 nominations, it's possible that it'll make history at this year's Oscars if it sweeps the categories in which it's nominated, in the process becoming the most Oscar-winning movie of all time.
When it comes to selecting the nominees, all Academy members – which includes over "10,500 global film industry artists and leaders," according to Academy's website – are eligible to nominate films for best picture. However, for most of the other categories, Academy members will vote for nominees within their own field, such as acting, directing, editing and so on.
