OK, so an animal can't technically win an Oscar, but they can win a PATSY—the American Humane Association's equivalent.

The Palm Dog Award is a yearly award presented by the international film critics during the Cannes Film Festival.

In fact, though there are those who have rejected their Oscars (Marlon Brando, Dudley Nichols), only one award has ever been revoked in Academy history — the 1969 prize for Best Documentary, which was given to Young Americans before it was determined that the film was released in 1967 and therefore ineligible.
