At the end it shouldn't matter much, Russel Crowe won an Oscar for Gladiator when he should've won for "A Beautiful Mind" and "The Insider". It took Scorcese almost 3 decades to get his due and when he did it was for a re-make.
The academy voters are renowned for choosing their winners for politicial reasons or to make up for past mistakes, Scorcese being the obvious example, and not just based on who's was the best performance or best film.
