And while Al Gore did receive a Nobel Prize, I couldn't find any listing of him ever being nominated for a Grammy, and he did get on stage when An Inconvenient Truthwon the Oscar, but he did not receive the actual award. (And By the way- there are no official nominations for the Nobel Prize.)

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) only awards one Oscar for Best Song every year, so it is not possible for one song to win more than one Oscar. And a song is only eligible for consideration if it is an original song, it can be used in many movies, but it is only eligible to win the Oscar for the movie it was originally written for. It is possible for one composer to win more than one Oscar. There is another category for Best Score, and composers can win year after year.

Three movies won 11 Oscars: Ben-Hur (1959) which was nominated for 12 awards, Titanic (1997) which was nomianted for 14 awards, and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003) that won all 11 nominations.

Theoretically, two actors from the same film can win in a tie, so a film could win more than 17 awards, but that has never happened.
