The decision to throw out most of the claims in the case was made by District Judge Lewis Liman in Manhattan on Thursday on jurisdictional grounds.
Lively accused Baldoni of sexual harassment in connection with the filming of their 2024 romantic drama It Ends With Us.
The 38-year-old actress - who is married to Ryan Reynolds - sued Baldoni, his production company Wayfarer Studios and others, seeking damages for alleged harassment, defamation, invasion of privacy and violations of federal and state civil rights laws.
She claimed the defendants created a sexually charged atmosphere during the film's production and then schemed to silence her from speaking out.
The film starred Lively and Baldoni, who was also the director.
Baldoni - who denies any wrongdoing - argued he addressed his co-star's concerns as soon as she raised them and defended his decision to hire a crisis management firm after Lively began disparaging him publicly.
In his ruling, Judge Liman said Lively had sued under a California law but the alleged wrongful conduct took place elsewhere.
He said Lively could pursue a retaliation claim against Wayfarer Studios, in addition to a contract claim and an aiding and abetting claim against various defendants.
The rift became public in December 2024 when Lively filed a complaint with the California civil rights department, followed by her lawsuit.

The New York Times published an article about the events, titled: "'We Can Bury Anyone': Inside a Hollywood Smear Machine."
Baldoni sued Lively and Reynolds for defamation, accusing the couple of destroying his reputation, but Judge Liman dismissed the case in June.
He also dismissed Baldoni's case against The New York Times.
It Ends With Us is about a flower shop owner, played by Lively, who marries a neurosurgeon played by Baldoni, but the marriage falls apart when he becomes abusive, reminding the florist of her own parents' relationship.
The National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC), the agency responsible for approving construction on federal property in Washington, approved the plans to build the ballroom in a vote on Thursday.
Commission chairman Will Scharf, a top aide in the Trump administration and the president's former lawyer, said a judge's ruling on Tuesday that construction should be halted for two weeks "really does not impact our action here today".
Mr Trump's plan to build a 90,000sq ft ballroom on the site of the demolished East Wing will mark the biggest structural change to the White House in more than 70 years if it is completed.
Before the vote, Mr Scharf delivered a defence of the project touching on past additions to the White House that were criticised at the time but have since become beloved.
He spoke of the addition of the north and south porticos and the balcony added by President Harry Truman.
"I believe that, in time, this ballroom will be considered every bit of a national treasure as the other key components of the White House," Mr Scharf said.
US District Judge Richard Leon granted a preservationist group's request for a preliminary injunction that temporarily halts the construction project until the plan has undergone independent reviews and obtained congressional approval.
Judge Leon wrote: "The President of the United States is the steward of the White House for future generations of First Families. He is not, however, the owner!"

The commission's vote, including three members appointed by Mr Trump, had initially been scheduled for March but was pushed to Thursday because so many people signed up to comment on it at the commission's meeting.
The only no vote was cast by Phil Mendelson, a Democrat who chairs the Council of the District of Columbia, who criticised the design of the ballroom for being too large.
The commission also considered some design changes announced by Mr Trump on Sunday, including removing a large staircase on the building's south side and adding an uncovered porch on the west side.
The staircase has been criticised as there is no way to enter the ballroom from them under the plans.
Retail director Thinus Keeve hit out at the government and London Mayor Sadiq Khan in a letter posted to the supermarket's website on Thursday.
"Without a government seriously cracking down on crime and a Mayor that prioritises effective policing, we are powerless," he said.
After the unrest on Saturday, about 100 officers responded to antisocial behaviour in Clapham, south London, on Tuesday, four of whom were assaulted, along with one member of the public.
Scores of teenagers and young adults were participating in so-called "link-ups" - using social media apps including TikTok and Snapchat before surging into shops.
Marks and Spencer was reportedly one of the stores targeted.
Mr Keeve went on: "It is becoming more brazen, more organised and more aggressive."
"We need a stronger, faster and more consistent police response, using tools that already exist to target repeat offenders and crime hotspots," he said, adding: "It's a clear ask: support our police. Help them show up in our communities when and where we need them.
"Give them the resources they need to tackle crime effectively, and ensure they work with retailers to consistently use the tools we've developed to share data and actively target offenders."
He also questioned claims that crime rates are falling in the capital.
He said: "I keep hearing crime is falling, especially in London - something none of us believe, and very few people working in retail would see."

Met Office deputy chief forecaster Tom Crabtree said the storm will form and rapidly deepen on Saturday as it approaches the UK from the west.
"By Saturday afternoon winds will strengthen significantly, with gusts of 60-70mph expected at times across parts of Scotland with the potential for gusts of 80-90mph in exposed coastal locations in Scotland. Gusts of 50-60mph are likely more widely in northern Britain," he said.
Blizzards are possible over the hills of northern Scotland as heavy snowfall of up to 10-20cm combines with strong winds.
Elsewhere, there will be heavy spells of rain as the system moves through eastwards across the UK, he said.
With the worst of the weather system a few days away, he advised those in the firing line to "prepare their property for the strong winds".
The Met Office has issued yellow alerts for wind across Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the north of England on Saturday and Sunday, with a warning also in place for the Orkney and Shetland Islands on Sunday.
There is a divide between the north and south of the UK, as further south it will be "breezy" and "much drier", with "some good sunny spells, particularly on Sunday afternoon and at times on Monday", the forecaster added.
Very strong southerly winds are forecast for parts of Ireland on Saturday.
The new Tottenham boss said he was "sorry if I offended" anybody and always defended the "more fragile" in society, in his first interview since joining the club.
Greenwood joined Marseille from Manchester United in 2024 after charges against him, which included attempted rape and assault, were dropped.
Last November, De Zerbi described his player as a "good guy" who paid a "heavy price".
He added at the time: "It saddens me what happened in his life, because I know a totally different person than the one who was described."
Since joining Spurs this week, fan groups posted 'No to De Zerbi' statements over his defence of Greenwood.
In his first interview with Tottenham's in-house media, De Zerbi said in Italian: "I have never wanted to downplay the issue of violence against women or violence against anyone more broadly.
"In my life, I have always stood up for those who are more vulnerable, more fragile. I've consistently fought and taken a stand to be on the side of those who are most at risk.
"Those of you who know me well, will know that I am not the kind of person who makes compromises to win more games or to win an extra title.
" I apologise to those who I offended with this subject matter. I have a daughter and I'm very sensitive to these things and always have been.
"I hope that over time, people will get to know me better and will understand that at that moment I didn't mean to take a stance."
