-Maddie- Well, I mean, you never get anywhere if you don't try!
Some attempts lead you backwards.

-Maddie- One experiment down, some number to go!
-Ruby- Safes are easy. I got this. *opens up and reads the letter silently*
-Letter- You're trapped in a simulation by Tempo. You can interact with the real world. -Maddie
-Ruby- Ooh, okay then. *slips the letter back in the safe and teleports it away*

At that point she can simply move herself out of reach of the simulation. There must be an "out of reach" because there is a separate simulation for Ruby and Soren. If they both occupy the same physical space, then there must be a way to layer it, and therefore Maddie could find "the real world". If they do not occupy the same physical space, then there must be some place that is not covered by both, or she can simply find the reality of someone not in a simulation.
EDIT: In case you're worrying, note that Ruby and Soren can't actually get out the easy way Maddie did. They're not used to losing presence in a Page, and if that were to happen on such a large scale, they would be put through extreme rigours under reconstruction and would most likely be incapacitated for a good while.
Just wrote two pages of a research paper in 30 minutes. I'm feeling great.

-Maddie- Not everyone's as clever as you are, mmhmm!
<Snipped quote by Techspert>
-Maddie- *raises a finger* You're right!
<Snipped quote by Techspert>
-Maddie- What's the point of having Ruby and Soren in a simulation if you're not doing anything with them?

See you around, if I'm unfortunate enough.

-Maddie- Whatever you say!

-Maddie- Well, you can check if you want to! But I couldn't tell you where they were!

-Maddie- There's this big room that's supposed to have the stasis pods inside! It has a couple of our backups, so that's how I know that's it, but there are no stasis pods inside!
