I think Ruby believes in Jaune too. The pep-talk conversation they had in "Forever Fall" back in Volume 1 seems to be pretty indicative of their relationship. Also, he does say to Pyrrha "You were the first person to ever believe in me", not only, but that might be being pedantic.

Overall, I think Ruby and Jaune's motivations at this stage are pretty similar. Neither of them fell into despair and self-pity like Yang did, instead they turned their energy towards constructive goals like bringing the people responsible to justice. Remember Jaune's little speech after Penny's death in "Battle of Beacon", which had a similar theme. So I honestly think they understand each other pretty well and hope they don't butt heads in the next season.
