Warner Bros. Television confirmed that the show had not been submitted for Outstanding Comedy Series despite having produced and aired enough episodes in its eighth season to be eligible, the report said.
Sources close to the show said producers decided the show should not be submitted due to controversies surrounding former star Charlie Sheen.
He was fired from "Two and a Half Men" in March after engaging in a public battle with the show's creator, Chuck Lorre, and network executives.
Sheen later sued Lorre and the studio for $100 million for terminating his contract. That lawsuit is still pending.
