Oscars (so white?)

Regardless of whether the Academy is racist or not (and there is a big chance that it is), how can anyone rightfully expect and even demand to be selected as a candidate or a winner in a field where a combination of artistic performance and a commercial value of it is measured not by tangible preset scale but by a speculative hope of the production house executives to maximize the return on their investment and by the tastes of academy members and a world wide audience?

i.e.:

A guy has a chance with a girl only if she likes him (or his wallet).
No complaints, no bitching.
If a guy presses the issue, the guy becomes either a stalker or ultimately a rapist.
And neither one is an artist.
