Rumor has it that Katie Holmes opted out of including her as an Oscar contender for her work in the film “Thank You for Smoking,” according to the New York Post:
Sources close to soon-to-be Mrs. Tom Cruise say Fox Searchlight Pictures wanted to include her name for a possible Oscar nod on the screener of “Thank You for Smoking” sent to Academy members – but Holmes’ camp “respectfully declined” the offer. The movie had caused a stink with Cruise because of Holmes’ nude scenes, which were snipped after just one screening.
Somehow, I doubt that even if she has been completely and utterly body-snatched by the Scientology camp, they have the power to convince an actor to deny themselves the possibility of winning an award. I mean, it’s just not natural.

If it’s true, it’s because Tom Cruise can’t have 2 wives winning an Oscar before he does! If she said NO, it’s because TC told her to.

Seems like a weird rumor: it was a great movie except for her. She’s a fine actress, but she was horribly miscast: she’s a “girl next door” not a bombsell sex kitten flashing cleavage, which is what the role was. She sucked the life out of every scene she was in.
