“I have a guttural, ‘That’s not quite right,’ instinct to [being called an actress],” Ramsey said. “But I just don’t take it too seriously… it doesn’t feel like an attack on my identity.”

So, genuine question. If someone is non-binary (which I believe Bella has said they are), does that mean that they are in the run for best actress? Or best actor? It sounds like it's best actress but it seems like a bit of a difficult one. What would happen with someone with pronouns opposite of their birth gender?

Bella addresses this in the article. But it’s just their personal take. It’s an easy read.
