How are the Oscar (Academy Awards) nominations decided? And how are the winners decided?

The Academy Award nominations are determined by the more than 7,000 members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. To become a member of this prestigious organization, you have to be a film artist "working in the production of theatrically-released motion pictures." After the nominees are announced, the Academy then gets new ballots in late January and votes for the winners.

It's done by an organization of writers that do movie reviews.
