The word 'winner' is a noun, a word for a personor thing that wins something; victor; conqueror.
It is a noun/prounoun.The WINNER is Clara Jones.^ predicate nominativeThe WINNER jumped up and down with glee.^ Pronoun
Pronouns function exactly the same as a noun with a linking verb. Examples: Jack is my brother. (Jack=brother) He is my brother (he=brother) The winner is Jack. (winner=Jack) The winner is you. (winner=you)
In the sentence "The winner was John," the predicate noun is "John." A predicate noun follows a linking verb—in this case, "was"—and renames or identifies the subject, which is "the winner." Thus, "John" provides more information about who the winner is.
The correct verb to use in the sentence is "is." The sentence should read: "Neither the losers nor the winner is happy with the tournament referees." In constructions with "neither...nor," the verb agrees with the noun closest to it, which in this case is "winner," a singular noun.

A predictive nominative is a grammatical construction where a noun or pronoun complements a copular or linking verb and renames or describes the subject of the sentence.

A predicate noun, or predicate nominative is a noun or pronoun which follows the verb and describes or renames the subject. It is another way of naming the subject. It follows a linking verb. Examples:The plane created by Molly is a winner (the noun winner renames the plane).My dog is the terrier.The flowers that I planted are tulips and daffodils.Their best dessert is the cheesecake.I am a perfectionist.
