When will the Academy give Johnny Depp his Oscar?

far as I know Johnny Depp has been nominated 3 times & stunning performances each time. Are they scared he's going to pull a Wounded Knee stunt, like his pal Marlon Brando,? They would rather give it to a foreigner than one of their own & what's with the bad press, just recently ? &....... joining the dots here, the critics putdown of Mr Depp's directorial debut "The Brave"l et's not be naive folks, surely they are playing politics not entertainment . What do others think about this?
