open (DATA, "< C:/Perl_Scripts/InputFile.txt");

You should verify that open worked correctly:

open my $DATA, '<', 'C:/Perl_Scripts/InputFile.txt' or die "Cannot ope +n 'C:/Perl_Scripts/InputFile.txt' because: $!";


my @array_of_data = <DATA>; close (DATA); foreach my $line (@array_of_data) {

There is no need to read the entire file into memory first:

while ( my $line = <$DATA> ) {


if ( $line =~ m/\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.csv$/g ) { print "Match $1"; }

The pattern is anchored at the end of the line so the /g option is superfluous.    You are not using capturing parentheses in the pattern so there is nothing in $1 to print out.
