In my Pages document, the footer has 3 columns. All three have the same width. Now I want to add text in each footer column but for that I have to change the width of the columns. How do I adjust the width of the columns in the footer?

It appears that while a Layout Break has the option to start a new page or not start a new page,
a Section Break always starts a new page. Thus, the header at the top of the page is always from the same section as the footer at the bottom of the page.
Note the 'DOCUMENT' icon at the far right of the very top of the document. Click on the Document Icon ... You will see a formatting screen similar to the 'older' inspector. The margin details are below "Document Body"
You need to select text in the body and then change the Document left margin from 2.69 inches to 1 inch.
Also, you might need to remove the left items. Depending on how thorough you want to be, update the body style to match the new definition, but at that point once the left margin is something more sane like 1" - you can fix your indents if desired by dragging the tab stops in the ruler.

@Matthieu Riegler is correct.
The portion will automatically resize to fit. Simply type in or paste your text. See screenshot below:
As noted in the comments, this only works when there is no content in the other columns. not quite what the OP had in mind. ?
