Because of the wildfires, the Academy has extended the voting window by two days – and will announce their nominees two days later, according to Deadline:
There aren’t any major awards happening in the days between the 12th and the 14th so all it will do is help Oscar voters, who begin voting today, extra time to watch all of the films. The fires have sucked all of the oxygen out of the city and of the awards race. It feels very subdued compared to the usual.
