There have been player of the year awards given in sports and entertainment that were really lifetime awards, and that may happen in this case.

On this you may be mistaken. You may want to dig a bit deeper while getting underway with your
research. Your first stop might be here:
http://www.oscars.org/awards/academy...es/rule01.html
c. THE HONORARY AWARD (Statuette). This award shall be given to honor extraordinary distinction in lifetime achievement, exceptional contributions to the state of motion picture arts and sciences, or for outstanding service to the Academy. (
See Rule Twenty-four.)
(In thoroughbred racing, this is why we have the HALL OF FAME.)
