Default Soft Limit Restoration?

I have RX8 Advanced and love the de-clip module for hard clipping files, but I can't get good results when someone has "baked" dialog into a soft limiter.
Is there anything out there that can restore soft limited peaks?

Do you have Waves plugins? Both C1 and Audiotrack can do a compression ratio below 1, essentially turning them into an upward expander. I’ve successfully used this to alleviate that “baked” sound from over compressed or limited material.
