So it looks like Blizzard changed their minds and will be making all Rubies use the non-bugged formula. To compensate, they will buff all ruby damage values but have not given any details yet.

All they mean by that is lower level rubies are getting the nerf. While they will still be the clear choice to get low level weapons with higher level rubies, they won't be as good as they were in 1.06:
The sword below will drop from 39.9 dps to ~30 dps. Still way better than an emerald low level however.
They would have to buff Flawless Squares from +14 to around +21 to compensate to be equivalent.
