You mean the action Rukia wouldn't have even bothered to think of if Ichigo never felt remorseful for getting in her way?

Tell me... How did Rukia act AFTERWARDS... She Ran... Never once trying to defend herself...

Then Byakuya and Renji appear... Rukia gives up instantly... She doesn't once bother to prepare Ichigo when she knows the entire time this day was coming... Ichigo gets destroyed like she expected... Then she complains that there was nothing she could have done even though there wasn't a goddamn thing she even tried...

Her Execution... Not once did she even TRY to accept Ichigo's rescue... Not ONCE did she believe herself to be INNOCENT... Not ONCE are we led to believe that she EVEN BOTHERED to try EXPLAINING herself the situation to her higher ups... As far as we know Rukia kept quiet from the MOMENT She, Byakuya, and Renji left Ichigo behind... Then she just let her officials put words into her mouth and accepted whatever bullshit punishment they gave her... HER FUCKING CAPTAIN CALLED BULLSHIT AGAINST HER PUNISHMENT AND SHE DIDN'T!!!

Orihime is considered a traitor... Yes, Rukia is for going to Hueco Mundo to rescue Orihime... Then Byakuya appears... If you even WATCHED her a LITTLE BIT... You could have obviously seen that Rukia had NO intention of going ANYWHERE until Byakuya revealed that he was only ordered to bring them back and let them go...

The five way split in Las Noches... Now Ichigo is rightly concerned for letting Rukia go off alone because she has LITERALLY only just gotten her powers back to normal... There is no way in HELL she could last very long... Who does the talking?... Does Rukia try to defend herself?... Nope... She lets Renji do all the talking for her and EVEN lets him put words into her mouth...

If Number 9 suggested Rukia do ANYTHING other than killing her friends... She would have done it... You and I both know this...

Captains challenge authority... Rukia doesn't... You just KNOW Kaien called Ukitake by his name... Hell he was capable of Running the entire squad himself...

Rukia. Does. Not. Think. For. Herself.

Renji realizes fully how out matched he is to Byakuya... And yet Renji STILL talks back to him when the time calls for it...

Byakuya doesnt stand up to the rules either, but he is a captain. If he was in her place he would also just go along with the punishment because after all Rukya did break the rules. As far as captains are concerned, up to the end of the first Arc it just looked like whoever had a bankai and captain level spiritual energy would be a captain. 
For example Komamura or Feng are both captains, but Feng only follows Yuruichi around and Komamura is a super boring character.
Anyway, Rukia is both strong and has a good potential, people are sometimes what they wear, when she becomes a  captain she would treat the situations differently.

Yoruichi... Byakuya's Anger... Young Byakuya... Yoruichi was a Captain... ONE OF THE DEADLIEST CAPTAIN'S... Young Byakuya didn't take any of her shit...

Oh yeah... He OBVIOUSLY wouldn't lash out to authority...

Would Rukia stand up to either Kenpachi or Soi Fon...? Nope... Not once... Don't make me laugh... Ichigo only Listened to Soi Fon when she both had the upper hand on him and was being Soi Fon with him... He didn't even have to think against drawing his sword against her...

A Captain Voices her opinions to people above her... Rukia only voices her opinions to people who don't matter... Renji and ANY of the Lieutenants... She doesn't even do it to Toshiro...

A Captain stands up for what they believe... Byakuya "Bothers By the Book"... This means... When Byakuya is given an order he KNOWS is utter bull... He follows the order EXACTLY as it was given to him... I.E. only bringing Rukia and Renji back to Soul Society... He then exploits every plot hole he can find with said order... (Like bringing robes for the Hueco Mundo desert) Just to piss off the moron who gave it to him...

Hell Yamamoto was screaming at Kenpachi, Byakuya, and Kyoraku for their Coats... They were flat out ignoring and MOCKING THE STRONGEST FUCKING CAPTAIN IN EXISTANCE...

When Byakuya follows an order... He only follows the Order out of Convenience...

Rukia gets an order... She takes an order... She doesn't even realize if the order has Loopholes... She KNOWS there is nothing to her... She is terrified to anger someone above her... (RUKIA ONLY BECAME A LIEUTENANT BECAUSE UKITAKE MORE OR LESS INSISTED... I REFUSE TO BELIEVE RUKIA BROUGHT UP THE NOTION HERSELF!!!)

The idiot 3rd seats (YES I KNOW THEIR NAMES) they give THEMSELVES ORDERS Ukitake would have never even thought of... Quite Frankly Sentaro has a better chance of being a Captain than Rukia ever would...

Oh... And don't forget that Kisuke went from 3rd seat to Captain... So rank is bullshit... Kenpachi was flat out unranked when he became Captain...

SPUNK, MOXI, NERVE, BALLS, GALL, STYLE... A CAPTAIN MUST HAVE THESE...
