For bonus points: where is she and what is she doing?

She's busy quietly reneging on grants she granstandingly made to colleges when she had money.

As for the shabby way Kazan was treated on that Oscar night, Warren Beatty was one of the very few actors/Hollywoodistas who showed class and gave him a standing O.

Elia Kazan was Warren Beatty's mentor. It was the Kazan movie "Splendor in the Grass" that really put Beatty on the map. It would have been beneath contempt for Beatty to have done otherwise, but many Hollywood Lefties would not have been generous in a moment like that. If I recall correctly, Rod Steiger ("On The Waterfront") was still ranting against Kazan at the time of Oscars.

We never watch the Oscars, so I may be wrong, but I heard that Robert DeNiro and another actor escorted Kazan to the podium when he received his Oscar.
