For Good Will Hunting, not for Dead Poets Society. He was nominated for Best Lead Actor for DPS

And Brandon was only on-screen for 23 percent of The Godfather
Yes, Brando in tGF is, at most, a second lead. And that's pushing it. Pacino is the lead in tGF.
IIRC Pacino didn't attend the Oscars that year b/c he was pissed he'd been placed in the supporting category.
And before anyone mentions him, Anthony Hopkins was in the leading actor category for SOTL b/c his contract stipulated the studio would advertise him that way for the Oscars that year, rather than in supporting.
While his performance is great, I've always found it curious Lee Marvin won a lead Oscar for Cat Ballou. It's not really a lead.
I don't want to get hung up on numbers, but Ratched is clearly a supporting role.
It works in reverse sometimes. Pacino in tGF. You can make a strong case Tatum O'Neal is the lead of Paper Moon. And George Kennedy in Cool Hand Luke has a huge second lead part -- remember he's on screen for a long stretch when Newman escapes.
