And yes 12 Years of Slave is a hard hitting movie with cold facts but I am talking about Lupita's oscar ? Would she have won it if she was not playing a niche role only crafted to play by black actress ?

I think she still could, but it wouldn't be as easy. Like someone else said, the role she played was very sympathetic and made you want to root for her.
Either way, her acting is amazing, so ima need her to continue winning Oscars for years to come.
