Frankly I don't think excommunications against rulers were nearly as effective as an interdict, in which the church could bar an entire group of people or a even a nation from access to the sacramental life of the church. That would mean no baptisms, no eucharist, no marriages, among other things. That would certainly turn a Catholic populace against a ruler who brought the interdict upon them.
