1. Is there an ISO and/or ANSI standard for Objectiv-C?

No. I think that Apple "owns" Objective C. NeXT acquired from StepStone all the rights to the Objective C language and the Objective C trademark in 1995. StepStone is (was?) the company of Brad Cox, inventor of Objective C.

2. Where are the exact specifications for the language (the likes of which
could be used to write a compiler, not that I intend to).

The Reference Manual for the Objective-C Language can be found at:
