I was wondering, how many Oscars are given out per category and whether they only produce as many as they really need (give out) or the maximum that they could give out (on that given day) and because of that, maybe keep some spare ones for the following year.
From 1983 to 2015,[12] approximately 50 Oscars were made each year in Chicago by Illinois manufacturer R.S. Owens & Company.
The time required to produce 50 such statuettes is roughly 3 months.

If there are fewer people nominated in a category, than Oscars (reserved for that category) are given out, will that person get multiple Figures?
Obviously, there are only one Oscar per Actor in the 4 Acting Categories. One Actor will win and get the Oscar.
What if there are "fewer" people winning than the "max" Oscars given out per category?
Is there a max number of oscars per cathegory? If so, what is it?
