I have some experience in finding all broken footer links in Java. Maybe you can use the equivalent of the below snippet in ruby:

WebElement footer= driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@id='footer']"));  // Get Footer element which contains all footer links
  System.out.println(footer.findElements(By.tagName("a")).size()) ;
  List<WebElement> footlinks = footer.findElements(By.tagName("a"));
  int i = footer.findElements(By.tagName("a")).size(); //Get number of links
 
  for(int j = 0;j<i;j++){    //create loop based upon number of links to traverse all links 
   footer= driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@id='footer']"));   // We are re-creating "footer" webelement as DOM changes after navigate.back()
   footer.findElements(By.tagName("a")).get(j).getText();
   footer.findElements(By.tagName("a")).get(j).click();
      Thread.sleep(3000);
   System.out.println(driver.getTitle());
      if(driver.getTitle().contains("404")) {
       System.out.println("404 Found");
      }
      driver.navigate().back();
   Thread.sleep(4000);
  }
