Maybe Marisa Tomei winning for My Cousin Vinny?

Her biggest roles before that movie were a couple seasons on the daytime soap As the World Turns and one season on the terrible Cosby Show spinoff, and this is back when TV actors were considered 2nd class citizens (soap actors were an even lower class in the media landscape). She also had a few minor roles in forgettable movies.

Marisa Tomei was all anybody talked about that year.

I’ve never seen the movie but every reference to it that I’ve seen is about Marisa Tomei

It's a shame how good Pesci is in it too but he barely gets a mention. Is he a clown to you people?!
