Ellen DeGeneres will return to host the 2014 Oscars for a second time. The 2014 Academy Awards will be broadcast live on 2014 Oscar Sunday, March 2, 2014, on ABC. 
The reason the 2014 Oscars are being held so late this year is because of the 2014 Winter Olympics. (ABC did not want to compete with the 2014 Winter Olympics in the television ratings). 

American Hustle and Gravity tied for the most 2014 Oscar nominations for any movie - 10 each. 
There was no love for Oprah or The Butler as The Butler was - rightfully - shut out of the 2014 Oscar nominations. 

Other major snubs for 2014 Oscars include the movie Saving Mr. Banks, (Tom Hanks and Emma Thompson left out), and All Is Lost, with the omission of Robert Redford in the Best Actor Oscar race (he blames the incompetent publicists at Roadside Attractions, the studio that released All Is Lost, for the Oscar snub). 

The biggest surprise nomination was for Best Song, Alone Yet Not Alone, from the movie of the same name, that no one has heard of, let alone seen. (Update: The 2014 Oscar Nomination for the song Alone Yet Not Alone was revoked. See why below).

* 2014 OSCAR NOMINEE FOR BEST ORIGINAL SONG DISQUALIFIED 

BEVERLY HILLS, CA — On Tuesday night, January 28, 2014 the Academy's Board of Governors voted to rescind the Original Song nomination for “Alone Yet Not Alone,” music by Bruce Broughton and lyric by Dennis Spiegel. The decision was prompted by the discovery that Broughton, a former Governor and current Music Branch executive committee member, had emailed members of the branch to make them aware of his submission during the nominations voting period. 

"No matter how well-intentioned the communication, using one’s position as a former governor and current executive committee member to personally promote one’s own Oscar submission creates the appearance of an unfair advantage,” said Cheryl Boone Isaacs, Academy President. 
The Board determined that Broughton’s actions were inconsistent with the Academy’s promotional regulations, which provide, among other terms, that “it is the Academy's goal to ensure that the Awards competition is conducted in a fair and ethical manner. If any campaign activity is determined by the Board of Governors to work in opposition to that goal, whether or not anticipated by these regulations, the Board of Governors may take any corrective actions or assess any penalties that in its discretion it deems necessary to protect the reputation and integrity of the awards process.” 
An additional nominee in the Original Song category will not be named. The remaining nominees in the category are: 

“Happy” from “Despicable Me 2” 

Music and Lyric by Pharrell Williams 

“Let It Go” from “Frozen” 

Music and Lyric by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez 

“The Moon Song” from “Her” 

Music by Karen O; Lyric by Karen O and Spike Jonze 

“Ordinary Love” from “Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom” 

Music by Paul Hewson, Dave Evans, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen; Lyric by Paul Hewson 

The members from each of the Academy’s branches vote to determine the nominees in their respective categories – actors nominate actors, film editors nominate film editors, musicians and composers nominate song and score. 

During the nominations process, all 240 voting members of the Music Branch received a Reminder List of works submitted in the Original Song category and a DVD copy of the song clips with film and song title only (additional information including composer and lyricist is not provided). Members were asked to watch the clips and then vote in the order of their preference for not more than five nominees in the category. A maximum of two songs may be nominated from any one film.
