I may have mentioned in the past how much contempt I have for award shows in general, and the Oscars in particular. While I applaud the sentiment of trying to increase representation, the idea that art can somehow be dictated by percentages and qualifications is ludicrous at best and disgusting at worst. If the Academy is trying to make itself somehow even more irrelevant, this is an excellent step in the right direction.
