There’s a little debate in my office over which is the correct way to use the name Academia Sinica - with or without the article. When I check their website, the article appears in their navigation bar, but not in their text. So, no “the” before Academia Sinica? 
I don’t use the article – including in material I work on for Academia Sinica itself.
I work there and see it mostly without ‘the’. However, ‘the’ has always felt right to me. Even Wiki waffles on this. 
I don’t think you’d be wrong either way.
Latin doesn’t use articles. So if you want to be a purist about it, leave off the article–and be sure to decline the phrase depending on whether it is used in the nominative, accusative, dative, genative, ablative, or vocative case. (Curse the Academiam Sinicam!) And don’t forget plural. (Did you know that there are two Academiae Sinicae, one in China and one here?)
Zla’od is right. There’s no definite article in Latin. Adding an English “The” to the Latin “Academia Sinica” would make it Latlish.
Perfect for here, then.
I’ve never seen it with “the”, and I don’t translate it that way. Adding “the” sounds completely wrong to me.
Agreed, but it is on their web page, left hand column, “About the Academia Sinica”.

Then again, it is a Taiwanese website…
