I have a PS3 controller connected via Bluettoth to my RetroPie and when I leave it for a few minutes it idles. Now I want to wake it up with my controller. My first idea was to try bluetooth event handling but I didn't find any useful documentation about this.

Do you have any good ideas how to achieve this?

As @Havnar suggested if the PS3 controller is still connected to the Pi when it idles, as soon as you start pressing buttons on the PS3 controller the Pi will wake up.

I can confirm this is possible as I can wake up a Pi with XBMC installed on it using an app on my phone connected to the Pi using Wi-Fi.
