I've solved it by installing XCode ComandLine tools:

xcode-select --install

@arojoal
Thanks for:
xcode-select --install

It solved the problem for me too

As a self-contained solution, I wrote a Ruby script that just installs Nokogiri using Homebrew's libraries instead of Apple's. It seems to flawlessly solve the issue on normal systems; I've used it twice without any issues. You can choose whether to install using either RubyGems or Bundler. Contributions or suggestions are welcome!

I can confirm xcode-select --install worked for me. Thanks @arojoal
