Best actress nominee Karla Sofía Gascón posts offensive tweets about Islam , George Floyd and diversity at the Oscars.

Actress has released several statements since then, saying she is not racist and that many of her comments have been taken out of context.

Hollywood has distanced itself from her posts, while Netflix appears to have refocused its campaign efforts on the other nominees.

Emilia Pérez , a Spanish -language musical about a Mexican drug lord who changes gender, received 13 nominations.

Zoe Saldaña was widely thought to be a frontrunner for best supporting actress.

Oscar voters and pundits will be watching forthcoming events such as the Bafta Film Awards and SAG Awards to see whether the controversy could affect the film's chances of a best picture win.
