They haven't brought about the Best Anti-hero category yet. I guess villain will have to do.
I really liked the fight choreography in Indiana Jones. Since the Academy doesn't have a category yet for fight choreography, can we nominate the fight choreographer for Best Visual Effects? It's pretty much the same thing, isn't it?

Just because there isn't a category for something doesn't mean you have to put it where it doesn't belong.
