Not to be pessimistic, but I doubt a flash movie will win since you would need a whole team to make a very high quality flash for a long enough duration and have it popularized enough to be a movie. But who knows, anything can happen.
generally all you need to do is offically submit your movie or "film" to the academy for a possibly nomination. I believe there's probably a fee to avoid everything under the sun from being sent in. if you've seen the nominations over the years you'll know most are HARDLY popular...generally the only place ive seen many of em is at animation film festivals like the one in ottawa canada. you cant really blame the films for not being seen...until very recently there was no avenue for em to even be viewed by the general public. i hope they actually stick many of em up on itunes and i'd purchase them.
i think the craziest one ove ever seen be nominated was REJECTED. while its good (and i own it on dvd), you'll see its VERY POSSIBLE for somebody to have a chance here. you just need to think outside the box a little and do something unconventional.
