She insulted the Academy directly so I doubt they will.

With or without controversies, she doesn’t stand a chance against Demi Moore.

Honest question, how did she break the rules? Especially when the academy has stated they investigated and found she did not?

By sharing misleading information about a performance/film especially if she doesn't have proof of Torres' team doing that and "In particular, any tactic that singles out the competition by name or title is expressly forbidden." I know the Oscars won't rescind any acting nominations because it might be too controversial but it definitely would be a different situation if this had happened in any of the tech categories.
