Actors nominated for 3 Oscars (for acting): Peter Ustinov, Melvin Douglas, Jason Robards, Tommy Lee Jones, Russell Crowe, Geoffrey Rush, Martin Landau, Willam Holden, Humphrey Bogart, Bing Crosby, Clark Gable, Jose Ferrer, James Cagney, Gig Young, Walter Matthau, Rod Steiger, Jack Palance, Maximilian Schell, Charles Coburn, Alan Arkin; Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Cruise, Kirk Douglas, James Mason, Marcello Mastroianni, Cliffton Webb, William Powell, Charles Pickford. First part- those who have won an Oscar.
Yes, but it is not alone in having done so, Titanic (1997) won 11 Oscars (nominated for 14), same as Ben-Hur (1959) (nominated for 12) and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003) (nominated for 11).
Ira Gershwin (lyrics) and his brother George Gershwin (music) were nominated for Best Song "They Can't Take That Away From Me" from Shall We Dance (1937). I believe they're the first Oscar nominated brothers. Norma Shearerwas nominated 6 times for Best Actress. She won the first time she was nominated, in 1930. That same year her brother, Douglas Shearer, won his first of seven Oscars, for Sound in The Big House.
It has happened only once, in 1964, Becket and My Fair Lady were nominated for 12 Oscars, and Mary Poppins for 13.
I believe Kelsey Grammer is the ONLY actor who has been nominated for an Emmy for the same character in three different shows. He was nominated for Supporting Actor in Cheers, Lead Actor in Frasier and Guest Actor in Wings - as Frasier Crane in all three.
He won twice for his lead role in "House" (and has been nominated two more times since then for the same role).

If I remember correctly, 3, all in the same night, and I do believe that they won all three
No. A film is only Oscar-eligible once -- and that is for the year in which it was released. But many movies have spawned sequels that have been nominated. For instance, "The Lord of the Rings" movie trilogy received 17 overall Academy awards in 30 nominations.
Jamie Foxx was the first black actor to receive two acting nominations in the same year. He was nominated for Best Actor for Ray (2004), and he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for Collateral (2004). When he won the award for Best Actor, he became the youngest Black actor to win Best Actor (age 34).Lee Daniels was nominated for Best Director and Best Picture in 2009 for Precious.
