Deploying to multiple servers simultaneously
We do something very similar with Cap-EC2. We're even going so far as to maintain a fork of it now to add things like role assumption via AWS STS because it went unmaintained. There's also capistrano-aws which seeks to be cap-ec2's successor, but I'd not used that one yet.
terraforming
- Importing multiple modules at once from AWS
-
Tools like terraformer
Terraforming
- Copy Azure resources via terraform
- Existing AWS resource to HCL?

Where to start with a mess?
I would also strongly recommend an iterative triage process: don't feel that you need to solve everything all once. It's a huge amount of progress if you can get to a stage where you understand the relationships between services, have enough monitoring to identify failures, and can iteratively move services to more granular IAM policies even if it's all still running in one big account. Simply using a tool like terraformer or terraforming to move the manual configuration into an IaC workflow is an accomplishment, especially since it helps you both make changes more confidently and identify where new changes are still being made. Depending on the politics, that last part might be important: you'll be unpopular if you take away everyone's rights but you'll probably have better luck first nudging people to make them using a sensible flow rather than by hand.

Continuous Infrastructure Deployment with Terraform Cloud
There are a couple of tools to automate creating terraform configuration and prepopulate state from existing resources, like terraforming, terraformer or cf-terraforming. But it is still cumbersome and laborious and in my experience, it's usually way easier to just recreate everything within terraform from scratch wherever that's possible.
