- At the age of 89, director Agnès Varda became the oldest person to be nominated for a competitive award in Academy Award history.
- At the age of 89, James Ivory, who is just about 1 week younger than Agnès Varda, became the oldest man to be nominated for a competitive award in Academy Award history.
- At the age of 88, Christopher Plummer became the oldest actor to be nominated for a competitive award in Academy Award history, eclipsing Gloria Stuart who was nominated for her performance in Titanic at the age of 87.
- Meryl Streep, with her 21st nomination, broke her own record and is still the most nominated performer of all time.
- John Williams, with his 51st nomination, broke his own record and is still most nominated living individual.
- Greta Gerwig became the fifth woman to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director.
- Rachel Morrison became the first woman in Academy Award history to be nominated for Best Cinematography.
- Agnès Varda is the first filmmaker to receive an Honorary Academy Award and then be nominated for a competitive Academy Award in the same year. She is nominated for Best Documentary Feature Film for Faces Places (Visages Villages).
- Christopher Nolan received his first Academy Award nomination for Best Director, having been nominated four times by the Directors Guild of America.
- Dee Rees is the first African-American woman to be nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay and only the second African-American woman to be nominated for screenwriting; the first was Suzanne de Passe, who was nominated for Best Original Screenplay for Lady Sings the Blues in 1973.
- With two nominations for Best Picture and Best Actress, The Post holds the distinction of being director Steven Spielberg's lowest-tally for a Best Picture-directed nominee ever.
- With the four nominations for Mudbound, Netflix broke through the top categories at the Academy Awards for the first time. It had previously earned nominations for Best Documentary Feature Film, including two for the ninetieth awards ceremony, but had never been able to hit out of there.
- Get Out is the first horror film to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture since Black Swan. It is also the first Best Picture nominee released in February since The Silence of the Lambs.
- Logan is the first superhero/comic book film to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay. It is also the first superhero film to be nominated for screenwriting since The Incredibles.
- For dual Best Supporting Actor nominations from the same film, Woody Harrelson and Sam Rockwell are nominated together for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. The last pair were Ben Kingsley and Harvey Keitel for Bugsy.
- This is the first time that two competing Best Actor nominees (Timothée Chalamet and Daniel Kaluuya) are in their 20s since Kenneth Branagh and Tom Cruise in 1990.
- With his nomination for Roman J. Israel, Esq., Denzel Washington is now the most honored African-American actor and the fifth most honored actor in Academy Award history with eight nominations for acting, tying the latter honor with Marlon Brando, Jack Lemmon, Peter O'Toole, Al Pacino, and Geraldine Page.
- Michael Stuhlbarg is the first actor to appear in three Best Picture nominees in the same year (Call Me by Your Name, The Post, and The Shape of Water) since John C. Reilly fifteen years ago.
- Mary J. Blige became the first person to be nominated for a performance and original song in the same year for the same film. She is nominated in Best Supporting Actress for Mudbound and in Best Original Song for the song "Mighty River".
- Octavia Spencer now ties with Viola Davis as the most-nominated African-American actress in Academy Award history, with three nominations for acting. Additionally, she has the distinction of being nominated exclusively for Best Picture nominees and all for roles that take place in the 1960s.
- Octavia Spencer and Denzel Washington are the first African-American actors to earn consecutive Academy Award nominations.
- The Best Sound Mixing and Best Sound Editing categories matched five out of five for the first time ever.

Despite the mixed reception received from the preceding year's ceremony, the Academy rehired Michael De Luca and Jennifer Todd as producers for the second consecutive year.[54] In May 2017, it was announced that Jimmy Kimmel will return as host for a second consecutive year.[55] Kimmel expressed that he was thrilled to be selected to emcee the gala again, commenting, "Hosting the Oscars was a highlight of my career and I am grateful to Cheryl [Boone Isaacs], Dawn [Hudson], and the Academy for asking me to return to work with two of my favorite people, Mike De Luca and Jennifer Todd. If you think we screwed up the ending this year, wait until you see what we have planned for the 90th anniversary show!"[56]
On December 4, 2017, it was announced that the timing of the ceremony and its pre-show has been changed and both are scheduled to broadcast a half-hour earlier than prior telecasts.[57][58] In the first half of the nominations announcement pre-taped category introductions were included by actresses Priyanka Chopra, Gal Gadot, Salma Hayek, Michelle Rodriguez, Zoe Saldana, Molly Shannon, Rebel Wilson and Michelle Yeoh.[59][60]
