It wasn't just that. There were black actors turned white, asian actors turned hispanic and other issues...
That and the fact that some of the makeup was shitty. Some good. I can applaud them for nominating it simply because of all of the crappy makeup work that does exist in the film.

The Hobbit, Lincoln, and Men in Black 3 will be the nominees. Maybe Les Miserables instead of Men in Black, but The Hobbit wins this one regardless.
