The braces are lost in the sense that they are superfluous (not typeset in the pdf manual but may be typeset in other formats. In your example \doi has one argument, so the braces enclosing the following phrase are superfluous.
This may not be harmful here but since CRAN introduced the NOTE it has uncovered thousands of actual typos and similar. As to the 'invalid url', you can ignore it when you are sure that it is correct - some sites don't like being accessed programatically and start blocking the caller (eg if you run R checks several times in succession).

I am confused because my braces appear to match when I count them, and I don't *think* I am runing into an item/itemize situation. Here's an example (all the reported issues in this NOTE are within \references sections ): checkRd: (-1) LoopAnalyst-package.Rd:14: Lost braces 14 | Dambacher, J. M. and Li, H. W. and Rossignol, P. A. (2002) \doi{10.2307/3071950}{Relevance of community structure in assessing indeterminacy of ecological predictions}. \emph{Ecology}, \bold{83(5)},1372--1385. Here's the Winbuilder log: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/LoopAnalyst_1.2-7_20240406_215835/Windows/00check.log__;!!PDiH4ENfjr2_Jw!A109ZbFKcZjQ25lSt1JJSlLziJ-IyfouQzdKPv5pnUKRq_3-RoKd52MVDkHUoho-VQ5Ld85q6WmdGwh5eSSWPstUjY95nA$ [win-builder[.]r-project[.]org] And here's the Debian log: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/LoopAnalyst_1.2-7_20240406_215835/Debian/00check.log__;!!PDiH4ENfjr2_Jw!A109ZbFKcZjQ25lSt1JJSlLziJ-IyfouQzdKPv5pnUKRq_3-RoKd52MVDkHUoho-VQ5Ld85q6WmdGwh5eSSWPstlRfRWeA$ [win-builder[.]r-project[.]org] The second NOTE is about "(possibly) invalid URLs:" URL: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/367590__;!!PDiH4ENfjr2_Jw!A109ZbFKcZjQ25lSt1JJSlLziJ-IyfouQzdKPv5pnUKRq_3-RoKd52MVDkHUoho-VQ5Ld85q6WmdGwh5eSSWPsuMHqle7Q$ [journals[.]uchicago[.]edu] Status: 403 Message: Forbidden However, when I follow this URL in my browser it appears to link appropriately to the intended page. If I use a \doi{10.1086/367590} instead of an \href I get the same behavior: check says "(possibly) invalid URLs" but https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://doi.org/10.1086/367590__;!!PDiH4ENfjr2_Jw!A109ZbFKcZjQ25lSt1JJSlLziJ-IyfouQzdKPv5pnUKRq_3-RoKd52MVDkHUoho-VQ5Ld85q6WmdGwh5eSSWPstaKkb77Q$ [doi[.]org] appears to work just fine in the browser. Not sure what I am doing wrong here. Thank you!
