expulsion or suspension by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences, resigned from the organization on Friday.The move comes less than a week after he slapped award presenter Chris Rock during the Oscars 2022 global broadcast on Sunday.But does his abrupt resignation mean the Best Smacktor winner still could get slapped — even banned — by the Academy itself?

If so, he would join a small group of ex-members who previously were given the official boot from the starry group.“I have directly responded to the Academy’s disciplinary hearing notice, and I will fully accept any and all consequences for my conduct.

My actions at the 94th Academy Awards presentation were shocking, painful, and inexcusable,” Smith said in a statement. “The list of those I have hurt is long and includes Chris, his family, many of my dear friends and loved ones, all those in attendance, and global audiences at home.

I betrayed the trust of the Academy. I deprived other nominees and winners of their opportunity to celebrate and be celebrated for their extraordinary work.
