People didn’t want the Joker retired “forever”. The argument at the time was that they shouldn’t recast the Joker in a sequel to TDK out of respect for Ledger.

Also, what about Robin Williams? He wasn’t an Academy darling? Why didn’t he get an Oscar nomination for his final role?

It was forever, as in he should never be played by another actor no matter what or if the series was rebooted and he shouldn't be used in any other media ever either. Total retirement, total fanaticism.

Williams already got an Oscar in 1998. The academy wouldn't think "Oh, now we can't give him one."

Given that the Joker was used in other media shortly after TDK (including the well received animated movie titled Under the Red Hood), your argument has little weight to it.

You claimed that Heath Ledger only got an Oscar nod because he was an “Oscar darling”. I was simply pointing out that if we went by your logic, Robin Williams should’ve been nominated for an Oscar for his final performance as well, given how much the Academy loved him.
