She's just old enough for a first crush that she looks back on with embarrassment in later years. Jaune - goofy, good-natured and good-looking in a certain way in her eyes - is a perfect subject for such an embarrassing mid-teen moment. It's the sort of thing that's almost inevitable given that he chose to do his 'white knight' thing at just a moment when she was feeling emotionally vulnerable. Lots of teens (not just girls) go through that.

Personally, I think it's going to be a running comedy theme - Ruby struggling with hormones and hormonal responses to boys (Jaune especially). I don't know if they'll do anything with it long-term.
