She’s the only nominee not there.
She was working. Unsure whether it was a play or a filmed production.

As for that race, Burns (who should’ve won but was in an unpleasant film nearly no one saw) and Miles had no prayer. York’s film was showered in Oscar nominations but Gig Young really had all the thunder for the picture. So, you had Cannon and Hawn, the audience favorites. Cannon had the critics too, so you’d think she would’ve wound up with the edge, especially since Cactus Flower garnered no other nominations, but alas, it would be Hawn.

You’re right, Goldie was basically a lead, but she did win the supporting Golden Globe. Dyan was the inaugural winner for BSA at the NYFCA for the hit film Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice. She might have edged out Goldie if it wasn’t for the fact that her ex Cary Grant was getting an honorary Oscar that year and so some voters might have felt funny about giving her a competitive win before him. Goldie later admitted that Dyan should have won.

Catherine Burns was really great. Funny I only saw it a few years ago but I have almost no memory of Dyan Cannon in Bob and Carol etc.
The Hawn role is big but for some reason it seems to always be classified as supporting. I just looked it up and Brenda Vaccaro originated the role on Broadway and her Tony nomination was for supporting (featured as they say) too.
