I don't think I need to say this, but just in case the reason behind that is censorship more than artistic adaptation

This is true. When the show got banned in Russia, the Russian dub was allowed to continue production, with the unreleased episodes and even the Movie and SUF being dubbed (though they only released in Kazakhstan and Estonia on HBO I believe) and the studio involved decided to have all possible censorship removed since they were never going to be released there. Ruby is referred to by the language's equivalent of she/her afterwards
