Your "http|" is a little odd (I'd normally expect "https\=://", but if
that's actually what you have, you should be able to do something like

\(http|\S*\/\)\@<=\w\+\/\=\S\@!

It's a little sloppy, as it assumes that the results you want to find
match "\w\+" while other characters could legitimately be there.
But that should give you the foundation for improving it.

It roughly translates to

\(
http|\S*\/
\)\@>= assert that the stuff preceding this is contextually a URL
\w\+ the pattern we actually want
\/\= optionally a trailing slash
\S\@! assert that a non-whitespace doesn't follow the slash
