I don't see any indication that this is any more important than the public backlash.

  If it becomes known that no Disney-made film will be considered for major awards, the actors and directors who are typically in contention for such things will suddenly be busy when a Disney-affiliated producer calls. Those who are persuaded to come anyway will ask for more money. Executive producers are often hoping to win awards as well as make money; they'll be leery of the situation too. Always look for the bottom line. The boost to Disney from winning any given award is minuscule, but the extra cost of talent can be significant.

    Yeah, I understand all that, but nowhere does anyone suggest that they care more about the awards than general backlash. They weren't even blocked from the major awards - academy awards, golden globes - just the regional critics association awards.
