"In a departure from our tradition of a live audience at the academy, this year's nominations will be announced via a global live stream on Oscar.com, Oscars.org, the academy's digital platforms, a satellite feed, and local broadcasters, including Good Morning America," the organization said in a press release.
Academy Award -- or Oscar -- nominees are traditionally read aloud at a live, televised press conference in Los Angeles.
Winners will be revealed at a ceremony on Feb. 26 at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood, and will be televised live on ABC. Jimmy Kimmel is to serve as host.
