The controversies and snubs did not go hidden from this year’s 97th Academy Awards. At the same time, nominations itself was marred by some snubs. Be it Angelina Jolie and Nicole Kidman losing out on their Best Actress nominations to Paul Mescal missing out on a nomination for Gladiator 2. However, the main ceremony also saw some snubs, be it in the awards or in the Memoriam which honors the actors who passed away recently. Here is looking at the major snubs that grabbed eyeballs at the Oscars 2025
Oscars 2025 Snubs
Demi Moore Losing The Best Actress Award
Demi Moore was the top prediction for this year’s Best Actress recipient, but she lost the award to Mikey Madison for Anora. This came as a shocker to some. Not only this but it also low-key confirms the ‘horror’ curse at the Oscars wherein the genre never ends up winning in the main categories.

My heart broke as much as Demi Moore’s did when she didn’t hear her name. This was her year for sure. Horror always getting unfairly treated! #Oscars #Oscars2025 pic.twitter.com/HWlQzBbcef

Michelle Trachtenberg Not Being Included In The Memoriam
Many fans were inevitably upset that the late actress Michelle Trachtenberg was not included in the Oscars 2025 ‘In Memoriam’ segment. She passed away on February 26, 2025, at the age of 39. Apart from her, Tony Todd, Shannen Doherty and Olivia Hussey were also not included in the segment. Fans called it outright ‘disrespectful’ on social media.
