@Flash: There is something called Facade, you know. The Ruby we know may be a lie, and the real one may have really lost it, somehow. Or is more evil than one would think.

Do note, being evil doesn't mean one could not be idealistic. She can be both.

I understand your concern, some people don't like when a character is written OOC. However, that, depending on what kind of fanfic in particular you're reading, may not be a bad thing necesarily. It may even make sense.

I don't know if you were there when I gave the Fanfic Material, but let's say you were. Remember the first one I mentioned? The one about Yang killing Jaune with a punch to the chest in Ultra-Rage Mode in Dueling Class because he accidentally cut a bit of her hair, and Yang going well into the Despair Even Horizon because of that? There, Yang would, after the fight, be way Out-of-Character, but in an understandable way, and it wouldn't be a bad thing. OOC Is Serious Bussines, like TvTropes says.

With Blood Rose, there are 2 things to have in mind in this aspect:

1-The writer warns you in time before you start reading. Not like other fanfic writers. So you know what you will be reading, and if you don't like stuff like that, or Ruby not being like in the show, you already know and can walk away in time without any surprises.

2-It's in an AU where Ruby has always been like that. Being an AU, things could have gone differently than in the show, which can change events, relationships, and even the characters themselves. Blood Rose's case of Not-really-innocent Ruby Rose, is understandable. Because it's not RWBY's Ruby Rose.

As for her innocence, it really must end. I really hope Ruby has more into her than just Idealistic Childish Young Girl With Childish View Of The World. I mean, compared to her teammates, and some other characters in the show, Ruby ends up being one of the less interesting characters, which is bad, she's the main Main Character.
