True, that pairing is interesting, but that's no reason to get rid of a really interesting character.

Besides, tehre is another side to the story, it's not necessary for a death to happen to change Ruby.

For example, Jaune could suffer a grave injury that will either force him to quit being a hunter, or he will be bedridden for a very long time. I actually can see that happening, seeing as Ruby is rash and loves to jump head first without considering all the facts - episode with Deathstalker for example.

So what could happen, that Ruby makes mistake in which Jaune, as a friend, tries to protect her and get gravely injured. Phyrra, seeing as she and Jaune have the closest thing to a relationship in the series atm, blames Ruby for what happened to Jaune + Ruby would already fill pretty guilty, since she's quite good friends with Jaune.
