You don't necessarily get an Oscar nomination simply for being beloved and legendary; just ask Orprah.

The nominated actors were far more adept in their respective parts. Plus it was a great year for male actors, making it inevitable that many great talents would be \”snubbed.\”

To me it just sounds like he's making a trenchant critique of the Oscars process generally without sounding bitter about this. I also think your comparison to Bruce Dern is a bit hamfisted, since Dern had other motives for stepping into the spotlight besides a "campaign" for an Oscar. That said, #noredfordnopeace.
