Auditors responsible for Oscar envelope mix up won't work with awards again

The two PwC auditors in charge of the Academy votes and envelopes, Brian Cullinan and Martha Ruiz, will not be working at the awards again.

The President of the American Film Academy, Cheryl Boone Isaac, said on Wednesday that neither would be coming to work at the Oscars next year – The Telegraph reports.

PwC has counted Oscars votes successfully for 83 years, making this one of their largest mistakes in history.

Cullinan and Ruiz were responsible for counting the votes as soon as the Academy polls close, compiling a winners list, memorising the winners, sealing the envelopes and giving them to the awards presenters.
