The Oscars is the biggest event in the Hollywood calendar so it seems an opportune time to make points about issues within the Hollywood system tbh.

I don't think it's about black people not getting awards, it's using the awards to show how little work Hollywood gives non-white actors etc.

Is it just a fact that all of the people who deserve to be awarded for their work just happen to be white? Or is it a case of only white people getting the work to begin with?

It's a tricky business.
