Russell Crowe, who was born in New Zealand, and Keisha Castle-Hughes have both won Oscar awards. Crowe for best actor in "A Beautiful Mind", and Castle-Hughes for best actress in "Whale Rider".

Keisha Castle-Hughes was only nominated for the Oscar. Anna Paquin won best supporting actress for "The Piano". Although born in Canada, Paquin moved to New Zealand at a young age and her mother was born in New Zealand.

I believe no actress from New Zealand won an Oscar.

Anna Paquin, who won best supporting actress for The Piano (1993), was born in Canada and her family moved to New Zealand when she was 4.

Yes but her mother is a New Zealander and Anna is a New Zealand citizen, it is possible to have Dual Citizenship.

No one from New Zealand has won an Oscar for Best Actress or Best Supporting Actress. Nicole Kidman is the only woman from Australia to win an Oscar for Best Actress. Cate Blanchet is the only woman from Australia to win an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress.
