As far as I can see, the word hubris (ὕβρις) does not even occur in Aristotle's Poetics and although he has quite a lot to say about character, he does not speak of pride, haughtiness, arrogance or any other attribute of character that could be construed as meaning hubris.
Herodotus and Demosthenes both make reference to the term but in very different contexts.
I am not sure whether Aristotle used the word anywhere else in his works. You would need to ask a classics scholar about that.
