The person who has won the second most number of Oscars is production designer Cedric Gibbons with 11. His wins are for the films:

The Bridge of San Luis Rey (1929)
The Merry Widow (1934)
Pride and Prejudice (1940)
Blossoms in the Dust (1941)
Gaslight (1944)

Little Women (1949)
An American in Paris (1951)
The Bad and the Beautiful (1952)

The person who won the third most is composer/conductor/arranger Alfred Newman with 9. His winning films are:

1937 - The Hurricane
1938 - Alexander's Ragtime Band
1940 - Tin Pan Alley
1943 - The Song of Bernadette
1947 - Mother Wore Tights
1952 - With a Song in My Heart
1953 - Call Me Madam
1955 - Love Is a Many-Splendored Thing
1956 - The King and I

Uh well, looks like there's 10 on this list, but pretty sure the number is 9. My mistake...
