Untuk sebelas tahun pertama Academy Awards, para sutradara diperbolehkan mendapatkan nominasi untuk film berganda pada tahun yang sama. Setelah penominasian [[Michael Curtiz]] untuk dua film, ''[[Angels with Dirty Faces]]'' dan ''[[Four Daughters]]'', di [[Academy Awards ke-11]], peraturan direvisi sehingga setiap individu hanya dapat dinominasikan untuk satu film pada setiap acara.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.filmsite.org/aa38.html|title=1938 Academy Awards Winners and History|publisher=[[AMC Networks|Rainbow Media]]|last=Dirks|first=Tim|accessdate=November 20, 2015}}</ref> Meskipun perusahaan diamendemenkan, satu-satunya sutradara yang meraih nominasi berganda dalam tahun yang sama adalah [[Steven Soderbergh]] untuk ''[[Erin Brockovich (film)|Erin Brockovich]]'' dan ''[[Traffic (film 2000)|Traffic]]'' pada 2000, dan memenangkan penghargaan tersebut untuk film ''Traffic''.
