Answer 1

D would be your correct answer to this question. "Three of the actors nominated for an Academy Award are Meryl Streep, Best Actress; Sean Penn, Best Actor; and Matt Damon, Best Supporting Actor."

Answer 2

The last choice is the answer.

In my previous answer, I did state ONE use of the semicolon. This is another. The items you are trying to list all have commas in them. When you are trying to list items that have commas in them (for example, city and state), you use a semicolon instead of a comma to separate the items. Also, no punctuation is needed after the "are".

Have an awesome day! :)
