I personally believe Salem is afraid of a SEW because their abilities are the only things capable of taking away the powers of Grimm inside of her, thus why she had SEW killed in the past.

Why would she want Ruby alive? It depends. Perhaps she noticed how her powers worked on Cinder, despite her not being turned half-grimm yet and came to a conclusion that we don't have enough information to guess yet, the fact that Cinder was damaged by Ruby's silver eyes at the fall of beacon is intriguing, even Maria found it unsual, my hypothesis is that Ruby could unknowingly be one of the Maidens herself, her powers buried much like how a semblence is, passed down by her mother.
