It is quite difficult to find cameras that use AA batteries nowadays and I am pretty certain that there are no current ILC cameras that use them.

Many cameras have battery grip options that have an AA holder as an alternative power source.

Yes indeed, I have that for the E-520.  I might end up getting one of the larger OM-D bodies down the road to have this option available to me (I'd have to get the EM1 or EM5).  The Pentax K-50 also uses them but I crossed it off my list for other reasons (has a propensity to get a dusty sensor even though it's supposed to be weatherproof, and it's too heavy for what I need.)
