Consider reviewing of your code review process.

Code review can miss because the inaccurate comments might not be close enough to show up in the diff viewer

Generally if I see something happen in every job I've had throughout my career I start to doubt that there is a simple process solution.

Confirmed.

We found a problem! Let start a startup: "Intelligent code review tool for smart developers, which want to keep comments in their code up to date". The tool will use AI to learn which parts of code are modified often in unison, and then propose to check them also during code review. It will also check for copy-pasted code blocks, and for snippets from StackOverflow with known bugs. The tool will reduce code review time by 10%, reduce number of bugs slipped trough code review by 20%, improve time to ship by 7%, bla bla bla, and instruct the coffee machine to prepare a coffee just in time for the review.
