Bear in mind that foreign films have, on a couple of other occasions, been nominated for foreign language film one year and then, the next year, be nominated for regular Oscars in multiple categories.
I believe "Fanny and Alexander" is one such film, as well as "The Emigrants".

"Day for Night" premiered in France in 1973, and France submitted it to the Oscars as their foreign film nominee contender that year. It won the 1973 Academy Award for Best Foreign Film.
Then the film officially premiered in the USA in 1974 when it thus became eligible to compete in all of the other categories for that year. It got nominations for Director, Orig, Screenplay and Supporting Actress.
As noted, this situation happened with Sweden's "The Emigrants", which was a Foreign Film nominee for the 1971 Oscars, but premiered in the US in '72 gaining other nominations that year as well.
Italy's "The Battle of Algiers" was a 1966 Oscar nominee for Foreign Film, but its director Gillo Pontecorvo competed in the Best Director category in the 1968 Oscars.
And so forth. The controversy lies with nations only being able to submit one film to the Academy - which might be in place of another movie which could be better received by the Oscar voters.
