List of actors nominated for multiple Academy Awards in the same year

A dozen people have been nominated for two Academy Awards in acting categories in a single year, the first in 1938 and the most recent in 2019. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has two rules about multiple nominations: first, an actor or actress cannot receive multiple nominations for different performances in the same category (one nomination must be for a lead role, in the Best Actor/Best Actress category, and the other must be for a supporting role in the Best Supporting Actor/Best Supporting Actress category); and second, they cannot receive multiple nominations for the same performance. The first rule was enforced after the 3rd Academy Awards ceremony in 1930, when George Arliss, Maurice Chevalier, and Ronald Colman received two nominations for separate roles, all for Best Actor, and Norma Shearer and Greta Garbo also received two nominations in the Best Actress category. Arliss and Shearer won for Disraeli and The Divorcee, respectively.
